If AI can see, hear and assess the patient, does virtual care still require a human clinician, or a radically different model of clinical governance?\n\nResearch Opportunities:\nAI policy vs frontline reality survey (deadline 2 September) Link\n\nResources:\nJAMA Perspective, \"Will Autonomous AI Exceed AI-Aided Physicians as the Best Medical Care?\" Link\nABC News, \"Error by AI scribe during medical appointment leaves patient devastated\" Link\nUS AMA, \"Here's how to make the most of patients' wearable data\" Link\nCommonwealth Fund, \"How Care Coordination Varies Internationally\" Link\nGoogle Research, \"Towards Expert-level Medical AI for Real-time Video Consultations\" Link\n\nVisitPulse+IT.news to subscribe to breaking digital news, weekly newsletters and a rich treasure trove of archival material.
