Ai-driven Transformation Of Healthcare In Algeria: Opportunities, Constraints, And Ethical Considerations
Authors : Abderrahim Wahiba .
Abstract
In an environment undergoing a profound digital transformation, Algeria is demonstrating growing interest in the potential applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in the healthcare sector. Confronted with disparities in access to care, a shortage of qualified human resources, and often-inadequate infrastructure, the country views AI as a strategic lever to modernize medical practices and enhance the quality of healthcare services. This contribution aims to examine the prospects offered by AI within the Algerian healthcare system by identifying the main obstacles hindering its implementation. The analysis considers the technological, institutional, ethical, and political dimensions necessary for the successful adoption of such innovations. Our research relies on a qualitative approach based on an in-depth documentary analysis. It draws upon a wide range of diverse sources, including scientific publications, reports from official organizations, and articles from specialized media. Our study also incorporates concrete examples of national experiences related to the deployment of AI in the health sector.
