Part 5/7:
As of now, the adoption of AI tools in medical practices varies greatly. While certain health systems eagerly embrace cutting-edge technology, others remain hesitant, partly due to the compliance with HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act). Currently, many AI applications exist outside EMRs, which diminishes their efficiency and impact. However, efforts are underway to develop HIPAA-compliant AI tools that enhance telehealth interactions and improve the overall patient experience by collating necessary information before consultations.
