EU AI Act for Healthcare

A sector track that gives clinical and operational staff the Article 4 literacy they need to place clinical AI on the right side of the EU AI Act — in the context of the medical-device and data-protection law they already work under, from risk classification and deployer duties through oversight, data, incidents, patient transparency and procurement.

What you’ll cover

  1. 1
    How the EU AI Act reaches clinical AI
    Map clinical AI onto the Act's risk tiers: the MDR/IVDR overlap that makes most clinical software high-risk via Art. 6(1), the Annex III edges that still matter, provider versus deployer roles, the prohibited practices, and when each duty starts to bite.

    Patient safety, human oversight & automation bias
    Understand what the Act means by effective human oversight of clinical AI (Art. 14 on providers, Art. 26(2) on you), recognise automation bias and de-skilling, keep use inside the instructions for use, and make oversight work under real ward conditions.

    Clinical data governance & bias
    Understand why representative clinical data is a legal requirement (Art. 10 on providers, Art. 26(4) on you), recognise where clinical bias comes from, manage the GDPR overlap for health data, and run practical input-data checks before and after go-live.

  4. 4
    Incidents, monitoring & the paper trail
    Know what counts as a serious incident and the Art. 73 reporting deadlines, understand how the Act's reporting dovetails with MDR vigilance, keep the monitoring and log evidence Art. 26 demands, and build a feedback loop that catches drift and near-misses.

    Patient transparency, rights & governing your AI estate
    Know what patients must be told and when, the explanation right that attaches to Annex III decisions, what to demand at procurement of CE-marked AI, and the inventory and literacy cadence that keep the whole programme audit-ready.
