Healthcare AI Often Overlooks Disabled Patients, Experts Warn
Original: The Disability Gap in Healthcare AI: From Bias to Inclusive Co-Design, Testing, Deployment, and Governance
Health policy researchers are highlighting the disability gap in healthcare AI, arguing that algorithms and AI-powered health tools are frequently built and tested without input from disabled people, leading to biased or inaccessible systems. They are calling for inclusive co-design, testing, deployment and governance so that AI in medicine serves disabled patients rather than excluding or misrepresenting them.
Why now: Growing adoption of AI in healthcare is renewing scrutiny of bias and who is left out of these systems.
