Human in the Lead

Human in the Lead: AI for Federal Health

Date: June 3, 2026
Time: 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM
Location: The Forge - 1201 New York Ave NW, Washington DC 20005

AI offers incredible potential to reshape the healthcare industry — but healthcare remains a mission defined by discernment, empathy, and accountability—qualities only a human can provide. To see this synergy in action, join Accenture Federal Services at The Forge for an exclusive event where we cut through the noise to show federal health leaders what is real, ready, and scalable.

Experience immersive, tightly curated demos of what the next era of mission delivery looks like when cloud, data, and responsible AI come together. Modernization succeeds when AI accelerates decisions, but humans stay firmly in charge.

This event is exclusively for Federal leaders – don't miss the opportunity to connect and learn in a setting tailored just for you.

Referral Lifecycle

Modernizing referred care from inception to program integrity. Using AI to provide a holistic patient 360 view for access to care, care outcomes, and impacts from program integrity issues. Utilizing a common data platform with AI embedded empowers speed to outcomes and a highly flexible solution set for UI, analytics, and workflow management; all empowered through AI.

Fraud Waste and Abuse

AI empowering case adjudicators to better flag FWA proactively and empower human adjudicators to make better, accurate judgements faster. See an approach to layering traditional rules with Machine Learning and modern AI to empower the Human in the Lead to root out FWA fast without trading accuracy and efficacy.

Intelligent Service Center for Health

The power of agentic AI supporting beneficiaries intelligently and empathetically. See how modern AI and voice can enable automation without foregoing control and a “human touch” so critical in healthcare beneficiary support. AI delivers advanced and human-like interactions while empowering critical offramps for Human in the Lead and guardrails to ensure support accuracy.

Cloud Smart Interoperability with AWS HealthLake and Comprehend Medical

Experience how the power of cloud enables Natural Language Processing, advanced interoperability, structuring unstructured data, and discovering AI-driven insights and inferences in highly complex data. This approach improves outcomes through empowering humans to be more accurate and more insightful.

CLEAR

Experience CLEAR1 in action and see how government agencies verify the person beyond the device with fast, biometric-powered identity assurance to prevent fraud, waste and abuse. In this live demo, discover how CLEAR1 maximizes security, reduces risk, and delivers seamless digital experiences through advanced, multilayered identity solutions.

DexCare

Discover how DexCare’s unified access‑coordination platform transforms scheduling and appointing by giving every channel—online, call center, referrals, and staff workflows—the same real‑time, authoritative view of capacity. Its intelligent routing engine automatically matches each patient to the right care setting based on clinical fit, eligibility, modality, and availability, reducing fragmentation without replacing existing systems. See how health systems use this architecture to fill unutilized appointments, shorten wait times, and deliver faster, more equitable care at scale.

Google Co-Scientist

See Google Co‑Scientist, an AI‑powered research companion that accelerates discovery by transforming complex data, documents, and workflows into instant, actionable insights. See how its multimodal reasoning and deep integration with Google’s AI ecosystem streamline analysis, automate repetitive tasks, and supercharge scientific productivity. Experience innovation in real time as Co‑Scientist reveals faster, smarter ways to work across research, engineering, and mission environments.

Philips

Experience how Philips AI transforms clinical workflows through seamlessly integrated, enterprise‑scale intelligence that empowers faster, more confident decision‑making. Explore innovative tools like AI Manager and 4DMedical CT:VQ that unlock deeper clinical insights, automate routine tasks, and elevate diagnostic precision across care teams. See AI in action through real patient journeys that showcase measurable improvements in efficiency, collaboration, and patient outcomes.

Demo exploration

Follow your persona journey and explore the Forge

Patient Journey

The Patient Journey demonstrates how modern identity and medical record solutions serve better patient experience. These demos coupled with an intelligent service center makes it simpler to find care, manage records, and control consent—while protecting sensitive data. Demonstrations align to federal health priorities on interoperability and privacy, using SMART on FHIR and TEFCA‑consistent patterns to enable secure exchange across systems. We keep “human in the lead” central—AI nudges navigation, surfaces benefits, and flags risks without automating determinations—governed by AFS Responsible AI standards.

Provider Journey

For clinicians, the focus is reducing burden while preserving judgment. Demos highlight ambient care, EHR optimization, and AI‑enabled imaging decision support—paired with guardrails, audibility, and human‑in‑the‑loop review. We operationalize responsible AI algorithms remain transparent, fair, and safe—augmenting clinicians rather than dictating care. Your journey connects EHR Modernization & Optimization with Intelligent Imaging & Diagnostics to practical workflows and measurable outcomes.

Payer Journey

Join a journey focused on program integrity and payment accuracy—without slowing the mission. Demonstrations feature AI‑supported claims adjudication and anomaly detection with human reviewers in the lead and transparent explainability for case teams and auditors. Interoperability patterns—FHIR APIs and semantic normalization—accelerate evidence gathering across systems while reducing manual rework. Your path shows how responsible AI cuts cycle time and leakage while strengthening trust.

Administrator Journey

Federal health leaders see how to modernize operations while meeting compliance, cyber, and budget constraints. Your journey connects Secure Health Data Ecosystem, NextGen Interoperability, and AI‑Powered FWA Detection—hardening the data estate, reducing administrative friction, and tackling fraud, waste, and abuse with rigorous human oversight. You’ll experience cloud‑enabled observability, role‑based access, and cross‑agency data sharing that respects mission boundaries. The narrative ties back to “getting AI right”—designing controls up front so transformation is durable and defensible.
