Overview
The Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act) establishes specific obligations for entities that use AI systems. In healthcare, these obligations primarily concern high-risk AI systems, which include a significant proportion of medical applications. The aim of this article is to provide a systematic analysis of the obligations of healthcare providers as deployers of high-risk AI systems, with particular emphasis on clinical practice. The text outlines the key obligations imposed on deployers and analyzes them in a structured manner. The article also highlights the relationship between these obligations and existing requirements of healthcare law, in particular the principles of lege artis practice and informed consent.
Keywords:
