Governance of Clinical AI applications to facilitate safe and equitable deployment

One of the key challenges in successful deployment and meaningful adoption of AI in healthcare is health system-level governance of AI applications. Such governance is critical not only for patient safety and accountability by a health system, but to foster clinician trust to improve adoption and facilitate meaningful health outcomes. In this case study, we describe the development of such a governance structure at University of Wisconsin Health (UWH) that provides oversight of AI applications from assessment of validity and user acceptability through safe deployment with continuous monitoring for effectiveness.
