AdventHealth is deploying ChatGPT for Healthcare to reduce administrative burden and streamline clinical workflows across its system. By automating time-intensive documentation and support tasks, care teams are reclaiming hours each week and allowing clinicians to focus more directly on patients. The result is not just operational efficiency, but expanded clinical capacity, faster access to care, and a measurable improvement in the patient experience.
Under pressure to do more with less
AdventHealth is a hospital system operating across nine states, serving millions of patients each year. Like many large health systems, it faces tight margins, growing demand and increasing administrative complexity.
Much of that pressure shows up in day-to-day workflows. Physician advisors reviewing cases for utilization management often spend about 10 minutes per case, not on a single task but on a sequence of steps: reading charts, identifying relevant details, checking criteria and drafting structured rationales. Across hundreds or thousands of cases, that time adds up quickly.
The burden extends beyond clinical roles. Teams in finance, HR, IT and other functions spend significant time drafting documents, summarizing information and preparing materials that are necessary but time-consuming. As a result, many operate in what leaders describe as “constant operations mode,” with limited capacity for higher-value work.
At the same time, interest in AI was already emerging inside the organization. Employees were experimenting with chatbots, even as formal policies restricted their use.
“We had folks who were eager to start, but there were a very large number of people who were on the sidelines,” says Rob Purinton, Chief AI Officer at AdventHealth. “They weren’t sure how to use AI effectively in their daily jobs.”

AdventHealth is deploying ChatGPT for Healthcare to reduce administrative burden and streamline clinical workflows across its system. By automating time-intensive documentation and support tasks, care teams are reclaiming hours each week and allowing clinicians to focus more directly on patients. The result is not just operational efficiency, but expanded clinical capacity, faster access to care, and a measurable improvement in the patient experience.
AdventHealth’s leadership concluded early that running isolated pilots would not lead to meaningful change. The central challenge was driving consistent, safe use across a large workforce.
“The hardest part of AI in healthcare is getting humans to use it safely, consistently, and at scale,” Purinton says. “We made a decision early on to treat adoption as the product.”
That decision shaped the rollout. Instead of positioning AI as automation, leaders framed it as a way to reduce administrative burden and return time to clinicians and staff.
“We don’t talk about AI as automation. We talk about time back,” Purinton says. “If we can take a 10-minute review and compress it meaningfully—while maintaining quality—that’s capacity we can give back to our clinicians.”
AdventHealth also treated adoption as a measurable operational metric. The organization tracks messages per user per business day, excluding weekends and holidays to create a consistent baseline. That metric is monitored and managed like any other KPI, with targets and trends reviewed regularly.
To scale usage, the system relied on domain-based peer groups rather than large, centralized training programs. Finance teams worked with finance teams and HR with HR, for example—sharing prompts, workflows and best practices relevant to their specific functions.
Enterprise-scale deployment with OpenAI
As the organization moved from experimentation to enterprise deployment, leadership prioritized tools that could meet healthcare requirements around privacy, governance and reliability.
“We chose OpenAI because we weren’t looking for a demo. We were looking for enterprise infrastructure,” Purinton says. “The reasoning capability, the structured outputs, and the governance controls gave us confidence that this wasn’t just productivity software. It was something we could responsibly scale across a health system.”
AdventHealth adopted ChatGPT Enterprise and later ChatGPT for Healthcare, which provided additional safeguards for regulated environments, including data protections and compliance support.
Speed of innovation and collaboration also influenced the decision.
“We really appreciate being closer to the edge of what’s possible,” Purinton says. “And we’ve found OpenAI to be highly collaborative as we think through pilots, deployments and what comes next.”
Workflow redesign for clinical and operational teams
One of the earliest and most measurable use cases was utilization management.
Using ChatGPT for Healthcare, physician advisors can generate structured summaries of patient charts, surface relevant clinical details and draft initial rationales. The clinician remains responsible for final judgment, but the time spent assembling information is reduced.
The organization measures impact using system-level data, including timestamps in electronic health records, rather than self-reported estimates.
“We prefer measures that are baked right into the process,” Purinton says. “We can see exactly how many minutes have improved and whether that change is statistically significant.”
Beyond clinical workflows, similar patterns have emerged across departments:
Drafting documents and plans starts with a first-pass output rather than a blank page Policies and communications are converted into structured, usable formats Notes and unstructured information are quickly summarized into action steps
These changes reduce cycle times, limit back-and-forth revisions and improve consistency in outputs.
Measuring results through time and throughput
AdventHealth evaluates AI impact across two primary dimensions: adoption and workflow performance.
On the adoption side, tracking daily usage has created accountability and visibility into how quickly AI is becoming part of routine work.
On the workflow side, pilots are evaluated using throughput metrics such as time per task, turnaround time and volume handled. In utilization management, the goal is to reduce review time while maintaining quality and consistency.
Across departments, teams report:
Reduced time spent on repetitive documentation and review tasks Faster turnaround on internal workflows Fewer rework cycles due to more consistent first drafts Increased capacity without additional staffing
The organization often describes these gains as “time back,” but leadership ties that concept directly to measurable outcomes.
“If you take a 10-minute task and make it two, and that happens a thousand times a week, that’s real capacity,” Purinton says. “The question is how you reinvest that capacity.”
Returning time to clinicians and staff
For AdventHealth, the value of AI is closely tied to its mission of delivering whole-person care. That requires time—time for clinicians to spend with patients and families, and time for staff to focus on higher-value work.
One example illustrates the impact at an individual level. A physician who previously spent evenings completing documentation, often referred to as “pajama time,” was able to finish work during regular hours after AI-supported changes to workflows.
“He was leaving work at work,” Purinton says. “He could go home and be present with his family.”
Stories like this reinforce the organization’s approach to AI as a tool for reducing administrative burden rather than replacing roles.
Building a foundation for broader impact
To date, most measurable gains have come from reducing time spent on existing tasks. AdventHealth views that as the starting point.
The organization is now focusing on expanding into areas such as patient access, clinical decision support and new care delivery models, while maintaining the same emphasis on governance, measurement and trust.
The core lesson, according to leadership, is that scaling AI depends less on the technology itself and more on how it is introduced and adopted.
“Adoption is not ‘go use the product.’ It’s ‘change leadership,’” Purinton says. “When you measure it, prove value and lead with trust, that’s when you get beyond pilots.”
