Health leaders are increasingly acknowledging the importance of clear policies and governance frameworks for the integration of augmented intelligence (AI) into healthcare systems. At Atlantic Health System, a focused two-part strategy emphasizes data privacy alongside the evaluation of AI's clinical impact by healthcare professionals. The rise in AI usage among physicians underscores the urgency for effective governance, prompting organizations like the AMA to advocate for the involvement of executive leaders in AI initiatives.
