UCLA Health in Los Angeles has launched a new center focused on evaluating the safety, effectiveness and implementation of AI tools in healthcare settings.
The Innovations and Outcomes Validation of AI Center, known as INOVAi, will conduct testing and research on AI technologies used in medicine and education, according to a June 11 news release. The center is designed to evaluate AI tools throughout their lifecycle, including usability and feasibility testing, workflow assessments, clinical trials and implementation studies.
UCLA Health said the initiative is among the first programs in the nation dedicated specifically to AI evaluation and implementation science in healthcare.
The center will operate through the UCLA Department of Medicine and align with the UCLA Center for AI and SMART Health, as well as UCLA Health’s broader strategy for responsible use of health AI.
At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
