Navigating Healthcare Innovation: Comparative Analysis of Regulatory Frameworks, Stakeholder Roles, and AI-Driven Transformation in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Beyond
摘要
The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare presents transformative opportunities to enhance efficiency, accuracy, and accessibility within healthcare systems. This paper explores the regulatory framework, stakeholder roles, and AI-driven transformations in Bosnia and Herzegovina’s healthcare sector. Challenges such as fragmented healthcare infrastructure, limited adoption of digital technologies, and ethical considerations are analyzed alongside the potential of AI to improve diagnostics, patient pathways, and administrative efficiencies. Comparisons with AI adoption in other countries, such as Sweden, United States, Austria, Netherlands, United Kingdom and France, highlight best practices and opportunities for advancement. The study includes insights from local stakeholders, survey findings, and analysis of regulatory gaps, aiming to offer actionable recommendations for integrating AI into Bosnia and Herzegovina’s healthcare system. Emphasizing the need for a centralized framework, capacity building, and international collaboration, the paper underscores AI’s potential to bridge existing healthcare disparities while ensuring ethical and equitable implementation.
