The Association for Diagnostic and Laboratory Medicine (ADLM) urges the federal government to enhance its support for healthcare AI initiatives, highlighting the importance of equity in healthcare delivery. By leveraging healthcare AI, the organization believes that disparities in health outcomes can be significantly reduced. The advancement of such technologies is seen as crucial for improving population health and ensuring equality in healthcare access.
As part of its initiative, ADLM underscores the need for targeted policies and funding that support the development of equitable AI solutions in healthcare. With the potential to enhance diagnostic processes, patient care, and operational efficiency, these technologies can address systemic inequalities.
