Improving Rural Medication Safety with AI: A Scoping Review

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The scoping review examines how artificial intelligence (AI) is applied across all stages of medication management in rural healthcare settings, from prescribing to post-administration monitoring. It identifies four main themes: the types of AI used, the medication phases impacted, the effectiveness in reducing errors, and rural-specific challenges such as infrastructure and alert fatigue. Studies show machine‑learning surveillance can cut prescribing and transcription errors by 34% to 80%, yet barriers like governance gaps, funding limits, and clinician resistance remain.

A safety-oriented hypothetico-deductive framework for AI-assisted differential diagnosis

arXiv:2607. 08038v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diagnostic error is a major threat to patient safety, yet current large language model (LLM) systems often treat diagnosis as a one-shot prediction task, lacking safeguards against missed high-risk alternatives or rigorous verification of their reasoning.
