When it comes to adopting healthcare AI, large, well-off hospitals are likely to frequently homer while smaller, struggling institutions go down looking. (Baseball analogy in honor of tonight’s Midsummer Classic.) 

Researchers explored more than 100,000 online reviews, using AI to learn as much as possible about what drives patients to give their cardiologist a positive or negative rating.

Using the technology and making it work for purpose are two different things. And the U.S. leads all countries in terms of full implementation, at 24% (vs. 19% for China).

Oncologists using or considering AI tools tend to agree among themselves on three points of ethics—and to recognize the same number of ways AI could help advance the state of patient care. 

Is U.S. healthcare capable of achieving its own quadruple aim? Or is that ideal destined to remain a perpetual pursuit, always chased but never really caught?

Those who have been thinking healthcare could use a detailed framework on the responsible use of healthcare AI just got their wish.

A full 85% of 2,800 surveyed across 14 countries say they’re investing in the technology now or planning to do so within three years.
