Utah let AI prescribe medicine
"Medication non-adherence costs the American healthcare system somewhere between $100 billion and $300 billion annually, depending on which set of studies you consult, and is associated with around 125,000 preventable deaths per year."
"The access argument for AI prescription renewals is therefore not trivial. It is strongest precisely where the care is needed most, addressing bureaucratic obstacles that serve no clinical purpose."
AI prescription renewals aim to tackle medication non-adherence, a major issue affecting many Americans. Approximately half of individuals with chronic conditions do not follow their prescribed medication regimens, leading to substantial costs for the healthcare system, estimated between $100 billion and $300 billion annually. This situation results in around 125,000 preventable deaths each year. However, concerns arise regarding the effectiveness of a state sandbox program in managing the risks associated with AI in healthcare, particularly in ensuring safety and reliability.
