For those with chronic health issues or life-threatening illness, the help of specialists
and medical consultant seem important. However, each time visit to the new practitioners,
hospitals, or health clinics, patients are required to fill long and complicated form,
particularly when the insurance is involved. It’s now clear that the healthcare industry has to
start the data management in order to overcome this problem. Over the years, the hospitals,
medical practices, medical schemes, and medical research facilities have digitalized their data
in an effort to warehouse it effectively and efficiently. Therefore, Artificial intelligence and
big data have significantly contribution in this sector.
In my opinion, there must be no limitation on how the machine educate their self and
their roles on the healthcare industry. However, there must be an exception or at least a
mechanism to regulate between the AI and healthcare industry. The mechanism could be the
limitation on the use of robots, the robots should not be use in every occasion so that it will
not injury the doctor’s duty in the field of medicine.
But the question whether people will really trust a machine to make a diagnosis, give
out computer, and do an operation? Perhaps, we have to admit that there are several
important factors to consider regarding the impacts of AI in the healthcare industry whether
they are positive or even negative.
