Artificial intelligence is revolutionising health and care – from diagnostics to personalised treatment – but how do we ensure it’s safe, ethical, and effective? The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency has launched a call for evidence on regulation of AI in healthcare. This call for evidence relates to AI used in medical devices (including standalone AI as a medical device).
Life sciences partner, Stephanie Caird’s explores the consultation’s focus, the key questions and why this matters.
The MHRA is inviting views from all stakeholders, including:
- Patients and the public;
- Charities;
- Health-tech companies and industry bodies;
- Healthcare providers and professionals, whether NHS or independent; and
- UK and international healthcare regulators.
The deadline for responses is 2 February using this link.
