When it comes to AI driving diagnosis or treatment decisions, 65% of physicians are “very” or “somewhat” concerned, according to the report.

Physicians aren’t the only ones skeptical of AI. Patients also remain divided on the technology’s place in their care.  

In a December survey conducted by Pew Research Center, 60% of respondents said they would feel uncomfortable if their healthcare provider relied on AI for their medical care. In the same survey, 33% of respondents said relying on AI would lead to worse outcomes, while 38% said it would lead to better outcomes.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
