Here are some recent developments related to artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare:
Regulating AI in Healthcare: Policymakers are grappling with how to regulate AI in healthcare. The industry believes that regulators are just starting to catch up, and there’s a risk of getting it wrong. The use of AI and machine learning is gaining momentum, and meaningful adoption is on the horizon. One expert predicts that incentivizing the “meaningful use” of AI will play a crucial role in shaping its integration into healthcare systems1.
Explainable AI (XAI): In 2024, responsible and explainable AI will take center stage. Healthcare professionals are wary of “black box” AI systems, where decisions are made without clear explanations. The trend now leans toward AI models that can provide transparent reasoning for their predictions. As healthcare leaders become more sophisticated in their understanding of AI, they seek solutions that balance innovation with accountability2.
Tech-Enabled Payment Models: Expect greater adoption of tech-enabled, advanced payment models. These models leverage AI and data analytics to optimize payment processes, improve revenue cycles, and enhance financial sustainability for healthcare organizations. As the industry adapts to the “new normal,” innovative payment approaches will continue to evolve1.
Revolutionizing Diabetes Management: AI and the Internet of Things (IoT) are transforming healthcare. For instance, an AI-powered mobile app integrated with continuous glucose monitoring systems has revolutionized diabetes treatment. Personalized care plans and improved patient outcomes are now achievable through these technologies3.
Generative AI Under the Microscope: Healthcare organizations are closely examining the role of generative AI. Experts discuss its potential, benefits, and challenges. As AI continues to evolve, understanding its impact on healthcare becomes critical for informed decision-making4.
In summary, AI is becoming the “new normal” in healthcare, with meaningful use, explainability, and innovative payment models driving its adoption. Exciting times lie ahead as technology reshapes patient care and healthcare delivery.
