UW Health and Epic say policymakers should provide “targeted investment and support” to ensure AI in health care benefits rural communities and other underserved areas.
The Madison health care system and Verona-based electronic health records business yesterday released a report on how AI should be regulated, drawing from a summit they held last month in Washington, D.C. The roundtable event had more than 25 participants including those representing health systems, the offices of federal lawmakers and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
The report includes a number of recommendations for lawmakers and federal officials, including offering incentives to encourage broader adoption of AI technologies in “under-resourced” settings, creating registries for AI tools to track their use across different settings and offering open-source access to such tools.
