AI Privacy Worries Surge in Large Health Systems, Survey Reveals

A recent survey by Wolters Kluwer Health reveals that healthcare administrators at larger systems are increasingly worried about data privacy and security violations linked to AI tools. With the average cost of a healthcare data breach exceeding $7.4 million, the survey highlights that nearly 57% of administrators from major health systems consider data breaches a top risk. This concern is compounded by findings that 97% of organizations facing AI-related security incidents lack proper access controls. These insights underscore the urgent need for robust data governance and security measures to protect patient information as AI technologies continue to evolve in healthcare.
