Driven Ai Robotics In The Healthcare Industry: Balancing Economic Impact And Ethical Consederations

Authors : Dey Wissam .

Abstract

This study examines the multi implications of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics as technological innovations in the healthcare industry employing a descriptive-analytical approach, this investigation systematically reviews the expanding role of AI-powered robotic systems across global healthcare environments, encompassing their principal applications from humanitarian, operational, and economic perspectives. The study demonstrates the substantial contributions of AI-powered robots to medical diagnosis, patient monitoring, surgical precision, and rehabilitative care. Simultaneously, it identifies critical concerns pertaining to ethical governance, legislative frameworks, patient privacy, workforce displacement, and prohibitive economic costs that disproportionately affect resource-constrained health systems. The analysis reveals that while AI-driven robotics holds transformative potential for healthcare delivery, its equitable and responsible integration necessitates the development of robust regulatory frameworks, inclusive innovation partnerships, sustained investment in robotics engineering, and comprehensive human-resource capacity-building programs. The study concludes with targeted policy recommendations for embedding privacy protections within healthcare governance charters and fostering technology transfer through quality-assured training mechanisms.
