Overview: Join this insightful panel in discussing the changing landscape of the “Standard of Care” in the fast-evolving era of AI in digital health and the provision of health care more broadly. Hear from a diverse group of thought-leaders in biotechnology and bioethics, clinical representation, and health care innovation. Although the industry has not seen the development of liability cases involving AI trends yet, it is only a matter of time, and this panel will explore what future litigation may look like and what various industries are doing to prepare and manage risk while looking toward the future.
Learning Objectives:
- Discuss important ethical considerations for health care clinicians, administrators, and counsel as AI is integrated into the practice of medicine.
- Discover ways to develop legal guardrails that mitigate risk while allowing cutting edge technology into health care practice.
- Explore issue spotting and projecting possible areas where litigation may arise first and estimated trends that may initially develop.
