In Kingman, Ariz., a windswept city of 35,000 at the eastern edge of the Mojave desert, data scientists are about as rare as a drenching rain. The local health clinic doesn’t have a stable internet connection, much less the software to support the latest, greatest artificial intelligence.

But the clinic, a federally qualified health center called North Country HealthCare, has plenty of problems AI could help with.

Its patients’ health problems are complicated, and its clinicians are stretched thin. There is no time, or money, to support bureaucratic battles with insurers or keep up with administrative tasks that AI is handling at the richer academic hospitals with better data systems.
