Redefining modern healthcare by integrating artificial intelligence into patient-centered care systems

Abstract

The transformation of our world through technology is continual, challenging society in countless ways and offering extraordinary benefits. With modern healthcare, like any other field, the possibilities of new intelligent solutions co-evolve with the complexity of choices to be made. Artificial intelligence (AI) in all its forms and applications, in interaction with robotics or embedded in other technologies, is at the forefront of the technical innovations that offer new options for improved care and quality of life or that, eventually, will raise concerns not only about privacy (Wang et al., 2019; Brown & Elenitoba-Johnson, 2020; Shaik et al., 2023). Others might introduce more subtle interferences in the decision process between physicians and patients, than the ones we know today. Modern health systems, based to a large extent on the care of acute cases (whether they relate to diseases or to injuries), are nevertheless part of an industrial era paradigm, and it is more and more recognized that they have to be profoundly changed, driven mainly by the needs of an aging population, by the increase in chronic diseases and by changing expectations about care quality.
