The AMA House of Delegates uses the term augmented intelligence (AI) as a conceptualization of artificial intelligence that focuses on AI’s assistive role, emphasizing that its design enhances human intelligence rather than replaces it.
The AMA is committed to ensuring that AI can meet its full potential to advance clinical care and improve clinician well-being. As the number of AI-enabled health care tools continue to grow, it is critical they are designed, developed and deployed in a manner that is ethical, equitable and responsible. The use of AI in health care must be transparent to both physicians and patients.
Gain essential knowledge on the ever-changing space of digital health technology. Earn CME while learning at your own pace.
In addition to medical devices, AI is increasingly used in health care administration or to reduce physician burden, and policy and guidance for both device and non-device use of health care AI is necessary. Recognizing this, the AMA has developed new advocacy principles that build on current AI policy. These new principles (PDF) address the development, deployment and use of health care AI, with particular emphasis on:
The AMA conducted a comprehensive study (PDF) of over 1,000 physicians’ sentiments towards the use of AI in health care including current use and future motivations for use, key concerns, areas of greatest opportunity and requirements for adoption. The objectives of this research included:
In general, physicians are enthusiastic about the potential of AI in health care, with 65% seeing at least some advantage to the use of AI in their practice. However, there are still key concerns as physicians continue to explore how these tools will impact their practices. Resources and research, including clinical evidence, will be critical to helping physicians adopt AI tools.
AMA’s framework guides physicians and the broader health care community in the development and use of AI.
AMA partners with technology and health care leaders to bring physicians critical insights on AI’s potential applications and ensure that physicians have a voice in shaping AI’s role in medicine.
The current CPT® code set drives communication across health care by enabling the seamless processing and advanced analytics for medical procedures and services.
