Episode 125: National Standards for AI Governance in Healthcare with Don Taylor

In this episode, host Dan Karnuta welcomes Don Taylor, the chairman of the board of directors at the Healthcare Standards Institute Foundation, which is responsible for developing a national standard for the implementation of artificial intelligence as it relates to the governance of the healthcare industry.

The in-depth discussion by the two faculty members and healthcare administration experts in The University of Texas at Dallas focuses on how artificial intelligence is being integrated into the healthcare industry and the urgent need for its governance and standardization. Since the use of AI is now, or soon will be, used in everything including clinical decision-making, administrative tasks, patient interaction and even insurance claims, Karnuta and Taylor discuss the significant concerns raised by its use including its ethics, patient privacy and organizational accountability.

Karnuta is an associate professor in the Jindal School’s Organizations, Strategy and International Management Area as well as director of its Professional Program in Healthcare Management.

Taylor is a professor of practice in the Jindal School’s Executive Education Area and director of its Alliance for Physician Leadership program. He also serves in the faculty of UT Southwestern Medical Center.
