HIMSS Unveils New Principles for Ethical AI Use in Healthcare

HIMSS developed its Global Public Policy Principles to provide governments, regardless of their structure or geography, with tools to improve policies that support the rapid pace of innovation while addressing the growing complexity of health and delivery systems. The new AI principles serve as vital guideposts for policy development and analysis across all health domains, ensuring that AI governance and deployment yield tangible benefits for stakeholders in health and human services. Additionally, the principles emphasize the need for ongoing monitoring and revalidation of AI technologies post-deployment to maintain their effectiveness and safety in real-world applications.
