Why AI? Why Now? – A Roadmap for Healthcare Organization to Adopt Artificial Intelligence

Community health centers and mission-driven organizations are navigating rising costs, workforce shortages, and increasing data demands. Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers real opportunities but only if it’s adopted thoughtfully, safely, and in alignment with your mission. FASTx Partners brings decades of healthcare IT, clinical and operational leadership to help you harness AI in a way that is strategic, compliant, and impactful.

Earlier this month, the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME) announced the release of its updated guidance, Empowering Providers, Protecting Patients: The Future of Care – CHIME’s Principles for Responsible AI, available here. The comprehensive document provides a clear roadmap for healthcare organizations to adopt artificial intelligence (AI) responsibly while upholding patient safety, trust, fairness, privacy, and security.  There’s a lot to digest here and we can help you do it.
