Consortium Overview
The Mid-Atlantic Patient Safety Center and MedStar Health National Center for Human Factors in Healthcare are launching a new consortium to develop a strategic approach on artificial intelligence (AI) and patient safety.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers new opportunities to improve patient outcomes, streamline workflows, and enhance clinical decision-making. However, the integration of AI technologies into healthcare settings also introduces unique patient safety challenges that require proactive, collaborative solutions.
Join us in developing a strategic approach to understanding, addressing, and advancing AI safety, with a focus on fostering collaboration, sharing best practices, and developing practical resources for organizations at every stage of AI adoption.
Through this consortium, we seek to broaden the conversation, engaging vendors and supporting organizations that may lack dedicated AI governance infrastructure. Through these efforts, we will help ensure that AI technologies are implemented safely, effectively, and equitably.
SHAPE THE CONVERSATION
What we'll
explore together
Based on the needs identified by consortium members, future discussion topics may include:
-
Distinguishing between AI technology and medical devices when making procurement decisions
-
Understanding existing AI governance processes, best practices and systems thinking for AI safety event analysis
-
Identifying organizational stakeholders involved in AI safety
Exchange Lessons Learned
Under PSO protection, our goal is to create an open forum where consortium members can share and analyze real-world examples of AI-related safety issues, and then co-develop actionable recommendations, best practices, and toolkits that will be accessible and actionable for all.
