Abstract

American healthcare facilities and providers increasingly rely on algorithmic tools to support clinical decision-making, standards of care, and institutional practices related to patient diagnosis and treatment. This development has been characterized as both “promising” and “peril[ous].” Healthcare algorithms are intended to improve and standardize healthcare decision-making, but they also are capable of exacerbating bias and discrimination and, thus, contributing to the delivery of inequitable care for already disadvantaged groups.
