Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) at Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital

At Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital, we use certain artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to support care delivery, documentation, and administrative processes. This disclosure explains how AI may be used and the safeguards we have in place to help protect patient care, privacy, and security.

AI tools may be used to:

  • Assist with medical documentation, such as transcribing spoken words into patient records.
  • Support clinical decision-making by providing diagnostic insights or treatment considerations.
  • Summarize clinical notes or patient encounters.
  • Assist with administrative functions such as scheduling, billing review, or health record summarization.

 

Healthcare professionals remain responsible for patient care and medical decision-making. AI-generated content that may become part of the medical record is reviewed and approved by the appropriate healthcare professional before it is incorporated into the record. Because AI technologies have limitations, their output remains subject to human review and correction.

Data Privacy and Security

  • Your health information is used only for authorized care, operational, or administrative purposes.
  • Information is protected by appropriate privacy, security, and access controls in accordance with HIPAA and other applicable laws.

Bias and Fairness

  • We evaluate AI systems for potential bias and take reasonable steps to promote fair and equitable performance across diverse populations.

Questions

Please talk with your healthcare provider or a member of our support staff if you have questions about your care or how AI tools may be used to support your treatment or appointment experience.
