Abstract
The use of artificial intelligence technology is expanding globally. Along with being used in
our daily lives, large corporations employ it. Now, moving forward, AI is being developed
that will be beneficial to the healthcare sector. In plain English, all of the diagnosis data will
be gathered and used to better understand the diseases in order to treat them more
successfully. Patients' lives will also be made easier by it. They will have a digital record that
doctors can access. They might receive medical advice in this way while relaxing at home.
The records may need to be modified by doctors who have access to them. So they may
easily complete it. Additionally, it will secure people's personal data.
Artificial intelligence (AI) will be used more and more in the healthcare industry as a result
of the complexity and growth of data in the sector. Payers, care providers, and life sciences
organisations currently use a variety of AI technologies. The main application categories
include recommendations for diagnosis and treatment, patient engagement and adherence,
and administrative tasks. Although there are many situations in which AI can execute
healthcare duties just as well as or better than humans, implementation issues will keep the
jobs of healthcare professionals from becoming extensively automated for a substantial
amount of time. The use of AI in healthcare and ethical concerns are also covered.
Researchers and medical professionals are interested in the potential applications of artificial
intelligence (AI) in the healthcare industry. There haven't been many prior studies that have
looked at this subject from a multi-disciplinary angle, encompassing accounting, business and
management, decision sciences, and health professions.
