The speed at which artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming deeply embedded into every facet of healthcare has lawmakers, regulators, policymakers, special interest groups, and other stakeholders racing to establish a governance structure to ensure its safe and meaningful use – without hindering innovation and efficacy. Recognizing our unique role in shaping AI’s future in healthcare, the EHR Association established an AI Task Force that will focus on thought leadership, guidance, and advocacy.
