Title overview

Information Technology and Artificial Intelligence for the Health Professions explores the many uses of IT and AI in healthcare, from office administration to medical devices and rehabilitative therapies. It weighs the impact of health informatics and federal laws across health professions, such as public health and surgery.

The fully updated 6th Edition examines AI in healthcare, including the promises and risks it brings. It also explores the expansion of telehealth during the COVID-19 pandemic and what it means for care delivery.
