Yapay zekâ (YZ) odaklı pazarlama stratejileri, hızla genişleyen küresel sağlık turizmi alanında uluslararası hastaları çekmede vazgeçilmez hâle gelmiştir. Bu çalışma, yapay zekânın bu son derece rekabetçi sektörde pazarlama paradigmalarını yeniden tanımlamadaki dönüştürücü etkisini incelemektedir. Akıllı sohbet robotları, tahmine dayalı analizler ve gelişmiş öneri algoritmaları gibi YZ destekli teknolojiler, hastalara son derece kişiselleştirilmiş deneyimler ve gerçek zamanlı destek sunarak hasta etkileşimini artırmada kritik bir rol oynamaktadır. Geniş veri kümelerinden yararlanan YZ, hedef kitle segmentasyonunu yüksek doğrulukla gerçekleştirmekte, reklam kampanyalarını benzersiz bir hassasiyetle optimize etmekte ve hasta tercihlerini öngörerek dönüşüm oranlarını önemli ölçüde artırmaktadır. Ayrıca, dijital geri bildirimlerin gelişmiş duygu analizi, sağlık hizmeti sağlayıcıları için güçlü bir itibar yönetimini mümkün kılmaktadır. Dinamik fiyatlandırma stratejilerinden çok dilli müşteri desteğine kadar kritik işlevlerin otomasyonu; operasyonel verimliliği artırmakta, maliyetleri azaltmakta ve küresel erişimi genişletmektedir. Veri gizliliği endişeleri ve insan denetimi gereksinimi gibi zorluklara rağmen, bu çalışma yapay zekânın sağlık turizmi pazarlamasında devrim yaratma potansiyelini vurgulamakta; akıllı, hasta odaklı stratejiler geliştirerek hastalar ile sağlık hizmeti sağlayıcıları arasındaki küresel etkileşimi güçlendirdiğini ortaya koymaktadır.
