MMA Seeks Volunteers for Task Force on Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare
January 9, 2025
The MMA is seeking up to 15 physicians to serve on an MMA task force that will examine artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare. Those with experience in utilizing AI as well as those who are interested in AI are encouraged to volunteer.
The MMA Board of Trustees authorized the creation of the task force in December 2024. The task force will be charged with considering the complex landscape of AI in healthcare, and identifying and recommending policies and/or principles that will allow for innovation while also ensuring that patients and physicians are protected.
The task force will look at transparency in the use of AI, potential bias in the use of AI, liability considerations, and clinical decision-making.
The task force is expected to hold its first meeting in March with an additional four to five meetings held during the remainder of 2025. Meetings will be held virtually at a time that is convenient for most of the members and will be approximately two hours long.
Interested physicians should contact Steph Lindgren, JD, MMA policy counsel, who will staff the task force.
