Security Aspects

Due to the vast amount of delicate patient data, the receiving and handling system must have rigorous data privacy measures. There are security concerns with the usage of AI in the healthcare industry. The safety of patient’s data and the security of healthcare systems against cyberattacks play a significant role in healthcare data, privacy and security. Department of health and human services (HHS) and the numerous offices and agencies house and play different responsibilities in the healthcare industry, including several cybersecurity (McKeon, J. 2021, December 1). Leaders from office for civil right (OCR), the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response (ASPR) and the 405(d) program joined a panel at the most recent Healthcare Information and Management Systems (HIMSS) Healthcare cybersecurity (McKeon, J. 2021, December 1).

Due to the interconnection of the healthcare infrastructure, strong cybersecurity protocols are also necessary to avoid hacking and data breaches.

 

Legal Concerns

According to the abstract, the authors emphasized what researchers discovered that there is not an exhaustive evaluation of their research that shows any kind of legal issues that associated to AI- related health problems.

That explains why applying scoping methods can seek to integrate and analyze the existing research studying legal issues in health-related artificial intelligence (Silva, M.D. 2022, June 17).

The scoping review developed by Arksey, O’Malley, and includes six stages (Silva, M.D. 2022, June 17). The first stage is identifying the research questions. The second stage is identifying relevant studies. The third stage is study selection. The fourth study is charting the data. The fifth stage is collecting, summarizing, and reporting results. The sixth and the last stage is stakeholder consultation (Silva, M.D. 2022, June 17).

  

Ethical and Social Implications 

The Ethics of Artificial intelligence is the part of AI systems that divided into a concern with the

moral behavior of humans, when they make, use AI at one hand and a concern of the machine that receives all this information and applied back to human at the other hand (Müller, V. C.

(2020, April 30).

The use of AI- based telemedicine for public health can create new opportunities for the provision of clinical health and even can be a significant help to global public health system, but it also carries ethical risks that should be identified, avoided, or mitigated (Tiribelli, Simona, 2023). The design of AI-based telemedicine for its acceptance in and for public health, has not yet been addressed by AI ethics framework, despite the current proliferation of these frameworks (Tiribelli, Simona, 2023).

One of the most important uses of AI in healthcare after taking the agreement, is Telemedicine or Telehealth. This kind of AI helped us especially during Covid-19 Pandemic, when doctors and patients could not physically appear at their medical appointments to receive their medical screening, diagnostic, and treatment.

  

Robotic-Enhanced Therapy

Digital technologies like robots have a big impact on how mankind develops. They have brought up necessary issues regarding what we should do with, what risk they pose, and lastly what we must do to manage those risks (Müller, V. C. 2020, April 30).

People with autism have trouble interacting and communicating with others. Here comes the huge help of the social robots for people with autism and ASD by enhancing their social abilities, teaching constructive actions, and offering encouraging feedback. This type of therapy is called Robotic-Enhanced Therapy (Quinn, Angela, 2023). Furthermore, Robotic-Enhanced Therapy is used for patients with mental and speech problems, such as dementia and Alzheimer’s diseases. Also, people after stroke, or any other disease that affect their speech and communicating with others. In order to better understand the concept of mind capacities for social robots and any possible ethical problems that could come up while applying social robots in healthcare environments, we must admit that social robots in medical treatment for autistic patients is useful and successful. At the same time, we should not ignore the fact that human touch is very important besides advanced technology tools.

  

Social Problems

Legislation and other kinds of law that control the society of humans, when functioning mainly in the field of education improvement in artificial intelligence, have largely been undisturbed of legal problems (Vellido, A. 2019, February). Shortly, this technology starts taking over in the wider social venue. However, influencing to start dominating the wider social stadium, their impact on people will probably run against several legal difficulties (Vellido, A. 2019, February). Legal responsibilities are extremely different, when a human is deciding whatever choices when driving a machine (Vellido, A. 2019, February). Some doctors start blindly embracing artificial intelligence in their medical diagnosis and assuming that every prediction was reliable and forgetting to verify them and bring different possibilities under consideration. 

  

Future Use 

           The healthcare organization that can completely rethink and redesign their workflows and procedures and apply machines learning and AI to build a truly intelligent health. System will be the most successful. Another innovation relating to the location of such care has been made in conjunction with predictive care, in 2030, a hospital is no longer a single large structure that treats a wide range of illnesses; rather it concentrates care on the critically ill and highly complex procedures with less urgent cases being monitored and treated via smaller hubs and spokes, including retail clinics, same day surgery centers, specialist treatment clinics, and even people’s homes (Kriwet, Carla. 2020, January 7). Personalized treatment that considers patient’s genetic makeup and medical history will become more and more feasible as a result of Artificial intelligence ability to manage big datasets. Considering the continued development of technological advance, AI is anticipated to hold an exciting future and become increasingly popular. It will likely affect a variety of fields, like financial services, healthcare, and transportation. The job marketplace is going to shift an outcome to AI-driven technology.
