Abstract: Purpose: The purpose of this white paper is to explore the transformative impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the healthcare sector. It aims to provide healthcare professionals, decision-makers, and organizations with insights into how AI technologies can enhance diagnostics, treatments, and care management. Additionally, it addresses the challenges and ethical considerations associated with implementing AI in healthcare and proposes strategies to overcome these obstacles. Methodology: This white paper is based on a comprehensive review of existing literature, case studies, and expert opinions on the application of AI in healthcare. The literature review entails analyzing academic papers, industry reports, and regulatory guidelines to understand the current state of AI in healthcare. The case studies involved examining real-world examples of AI applications in healthcare institutions to illustrate the practical benefits and challenges. Expert interviews involved consulting with healthcare professionals and AI specialists to gather insights and validate findings, while data analysis involved reviewing statistical data and outcomes from AI implementations in various healthcare settings. Findings: AI methods enable the capture of complex relationships within clinical data, improve diagnostic accuracy, personalize care pathways, and make hospital management processes more efficient and safer. Additionally, regulatory initiatives are emerging worldwide, aiming to guide the use of AI in the healthcare sector. These efforts seek to establish standards for safety, transparency, and reliability to protect patients and build trust in these innovative technologies. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: AI is currently permeating all aspects of our society and is becoming a key technology for transforming the way healthcare is delivered. The unique characteristics of the healthcare sector, such as the complexity of diagnostics, the personalization of treatments, and the management of large volumes of medical data, make it a particularly suitable field for the application of AI.
