AI has the potential to transform hospital administration and has recently emerged as a solution for improving operational efficiency, enhancing decision-making processes, and optimizing patient care.This paper discusses a few of the AI applications in a hospital administration such as predictive analytics, machine learning and robotic process automation.The article also looks into some of the challenges and hurdles that hinder the mass use of AI like data privacy, integrating systems, and cost of deployment among others.Through examining case studies and literature, this study emphasises the value that AI has for healthcare organizations with discussion around potentially beneficial applications and evolution.The results highlight the need of overcoming implementing challenges to fully leverage AI's potential in healthcare systems. 1.INTRODUCTIONAs a result of increased patient numbers and resource constraints, the operational costs for maintaining quality healthcare services continue to rise.The modern hospital administrator has to cope with a delicate balance of numerous interrelated activities such as: rostering staff, managing resources, overseeing finances, and coordinating the delivery of services to patients (M.Wang & J. Preininger, 2020).These competing priorities cannot be managed by traditional administrative systems that are still largely paper-based, or at best, digitized to a certain extent, hence, much work still being done manually.The implementation of automation and AI technologies, which include machine learning, predictive analytics, and natural language processing, promise to ease the administrative burden AI algorithms can unlock new facets of work improvement throughout the operational workflows.At a minimum, the available AI technologies can perform a wide array of predictive analytics related to staff patient admission, inventory records, and even clinical decision support systems.By shifting the burden of mundane routine work to the automated systems, healthcare institutions may lower their operational costs of serving patients Varghese, Choi, Tan, & Chao, 2017). 2.LITERATURE REVIEWWith the advancement of technology, its capabilities open new opportunities, particularly in healthcare which heavily relies on accurate information.These complex areas are now able to utilize the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Natural Language Processing (NLP), and Robotic Process Automation (RPA) booming everywhere in an attempt to further improve decision making processes within hospitals, enhance daily operations, and most importantly, provide better care for patients. Machine Learning and Predictive AnalyticsThrough Machine Learning, it is now possible to analyze historical hospital data, patient records e.g.transcripts, and even develop expectations about patients, resource management, and decision making to yield better outcomes (Liu et al., 2018).Analytics is a prospective avenue for patient movement supervision, and resource management (Varghese et al., 2017).
