AI is already changing how patients find and choose their providers.

In our 2026 Patient Choice Report, 47% of patients said they've used AI to research a provider.

Among patients who went looking for a new doctor, AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude carried more weight (36%) than a Google search or a PCP’s referral.

But AI isn't always right. 66% of those users noted that they’ve been fed incorrect information.

That means your listings, reviews, directories, website, and third-party profiles aren’t just helping patients find you. They’re helping AI decide what to say about you.

Download the full report to see how AI, online reviews, and rising patient standards are changing the path to care.
