HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra tasked the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT with conducting algorithm bias research, at the ONC 2022 Annual Meeting on April 13.
“As part of the effort, I’ve asked ONC to take a deep look at algorithmic bias and its implications for health equity to ensure that all Americans get the benefits that modern analytic technologies can provide,” Mr. Becerra said.
The ONC has already conducted work surrounding algorithms.
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.
