How We Use Computer-Assisted Decision Support in Your Care

At Cahaba Medical Care we use computer-assisted decision support (also referred to as Artificial Intelligence or AI) to help doctors, nurses, and staff provide better, safer, and more efficient care. This means that smart computer systems help review test results, organize health records, and suggest possible care options.

However, these computer systems do not make final decisions about your health. We follow the Copilot Principle, which means a licensed doctor or healthcare provider always reviews and approves any recommendations before making decisions about your care.

How Computer-Assisted Decision Support Helps You

Here are some ways these tools assist in your healthcare:

• Helping your provider take notes in your visit

• Helping doctors review test results

• Sending reminders

• Keeping health records organized

• Identifying health risks early

Your Privacy and Security Are Our Priority

Your health information is protected and secure. We follow strict privacy rules to keep your data safe when using computer-assisted decision support.

• We follow all privacy laws (like HIPAA) to protect your medical information.

• We do not sell your data to anyone.

• Only authorized doctors and healthcare staff can use the information from these systems.

If you have any questions about how we use these systems or how your privacy is protected, please ask a staff member or contact the office manager at the clinic that you use.
