Summary
Sentara Health is integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into its healthcare operations through an AI Oversight Program managed by a committee of senior leaders. The program is guided by eight principles that prioritize safety, ethics, and accountability while promoting responsible AI use. Key areas of focus include human oversight, technical robustness, and privacy, aiming to enhance patient care and safety. One application of this strategy is the Microsoft DAX Copilot, which aids healthcare providers in efficiently creating clinical notes, thus alleviating administrative tasks and enabling more patient-centric interactions.
