aceMost patients won't endorse AI medical responses without a clinician's review, study finds
In a Columbia University School of Nursing study surveying 1,185 U.S.-based adults about AI use in secure medical portals, 63% of patients said they would not endorse AI-generated medical responses without a clinician's review. This suggests that while patients see value in using AI for certain health care tasks, they prefer a human review when medical advice is involved. The study, "Public Perceptions of Timeliness for AI Use and Human Oversight," was published in the JAMA Network Open on Oct. 14, 2026.
A majority of surveyed U.S. adults would not endorse AI-generated medical responses in secure portals unless a clinician reviews them, which limits trust in unsupervised AI.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1439 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
