With Zocdoc’s Insurance Checker, a patient just has to take a photo of their health insurance card. Our search process uses multiple algorithms to parse a patient’s intent and match their needs to the right specialist,” says Serkan Kutan, CTO of Zocdoc. “As a consumer-facing tech company operating in healthcare, we are eager to bring data driven innovations to improve the patient experience. Patients can get appointments within 24 hours, compared to a national average wait time of 24 days for new patients. With algorithms built using the TensorFlow deep learning framework, Zocdoc matches patients and doctors more efficiently.

Deep learning on AWS is at the core of Zocdoc’s mission to optimize health care data to help patients. Zocdoc helps patients navigate this maze, allowing individuals with health care needs to make more informed choices and find care that matches their needs. A recent survey showed that more than half of Americans have difficulty understanding their insurance coverage, and three-quarters want an easier way to check if doctors are in-network.
