Unlocking the Potential of Automation and AI for Medical Practices

Shabnam Fahimi-Weber ()

A chapter in Transformation in Health Care, 2025, pp 75-86 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter examines how medical practices can streamline administrative tasks, such as scheduling and billing, and enhance medical processes such as diagnostics and personalized care through the use of automation and AI. A case study highlights the tangible benefits of integrated solutions in reducing staff burden and improving the patient experience. Based on an assessment of Germany’s current and potential adoption of automation and AI, Fahimi-Weber finds that administrative automation and AI applications offer immediate efficiency gains, while medical automation and AI tools face regulatory and ethical challenges. The chapter emphasizes the need for regulatory reform, practitioner education, and cultural change to enable wider adoption. Fahimi-Weber concludes automation and AI to be essential for the future of healthcare and the future of medical practices.
