Official title
Evaluating the Safety and Appropriateness of AI-based E-Consults for Older Adults in Primary Care
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Electronic consultations, or e-consults, let a primary care doctor request medical advice from a specialist without requiring the patient to attend a separate visit. Artificial intelligence (AI) systems may be able to provide this type of advice, potentially making e-consults faster and less costly. However, whether AI-based e-consults are acceptable may depend on how patients and clinicians weigh factors such as who provides the advice, how quickly it is received, its cost, and its quality. The purpose of this study is to examine how older adult patients and primary care clinicians weigh these factors when comparing e-consults produced by a human specialist with those produced by an AI system. In the study, participants will complete a one-time survey in which they compare sets of two hypothetical e-consults. Each e-consult will include a different combination of features, such as whether the advice comes from a human or AI, the expected wait time, the cost, and the quality of the advice. This study will estimate how much patients and clinicians value each feature in an e-consult. The findings will inform the potential future AI e-consults, so they better reflect patient and clinician preferences.
