ASGE Annual Postgraduate Course: Clinical Challenges and Real-Time Decision Making in GI Endoscopy (On-demand) | May 2023-The Big Question: Who Will Pay for AI?

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Dr. Kan discusses the challenge of determining who will pay for AI in the medical field. He explains that in the past, the federal government has provided additional payments for the use of computer-aided detection in mammography. However, most mammographers do not use CAD because they often have to remove the marks it detects. Dr. Kan mentions several payment mechanisms, such as the new technology add-on payment (NTAP) and fee-for-service healthcare models. He also mentions the importance of improving productivity and delivering high-quality care at reduced costs. Dr. Kan raises questions about who should receive payment for the use of AI systems and discusses the legal liability implications. He concludes by suggesting the need to consider an insurance model for AI adoption in clinical practice. No specific credits were mentioned.
