Data accuracy failures in health care
Tuesday, 1 April, 2025
Internist and psychiatrist Muhamad Aly Rifai discusses his article, "How data accuracy failures are costing lives and money in health care." He explores the consequences of inaccurate data in health care, from billing errors and wrongful prosecutions to the broader impact on medical decision-making and patient care. Muhamad highlights real-world cases, including his own legal battle over Medicare claims and the flawed prosecution of an interventional cardiologist, to illustrate how poor data fidelity can lead to catastrophic errors. He also explains how artificial intelligence may amplify these risks if data integrity issues remain unresolved. Tune in for insights into the urgent need for accurate, reliable health care data and solutions to improve data quality in medicine. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.
