Closing the Digital Divide: AI Governance for Rural Hospitals
Realizing the promise of AI in rural communities
As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes a standard tool in health care, rural hospitals are at risk of a deepening digital divide. Compounding this challenge is the reality that rural hospitals often lack the patient volume, technical staff and resources needed to localize externally developed models, train their own, or maintain them over time. New data reveals smaller, independent and critical access hospitals struggling to keep pace with peers to adopt AI technology. Without intentional governance and tailored implementation strategies, rural communities may miss out on AI’s potential to improve outcomes and operational efficiency. This Knowledge Exchange e-book explores how rural health care leaders can design AI governance frameworks that reflect the realities of rural care, ensuring access, sustainable deployment and long-term impact.
