Applying AI in Clinical Practice: A Practical Framework for Physicians

Corpus Christi, TX US
October 21, 2026

The talk is built specifically for a room of practicing physicians rather than a technical audience, and covers:
Why this has moved from an emerging-technology conversation to an operating reality (current FDA authorization data)
The four places AI is already showing up in daily practice: ambient documentation, diagnostic support, remote monitoring, and clinical trials/research
A five-question framework physicians can use to evaluate any AI tool before adopting it
An honest look at where the evidence is still thin, so the talk isn't one-sided
For anyone interested in going further than using these tools, a look at pathways into physician-led innovation

Target Audience

Physicians, Advanced Practice Professionals, Healthcare Leaders

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be able to:

  • Identify current applications of artificial intelligence in clinical practice, including ambient documentation, diagnostic decision support, and remote patient monitoring, along with the strength and limits of the evidence supporting each.
  • Apply the ethical principles of beneficence, non-maleficence, autonomy, and justice to decisions about adopting and using AI tools, including patient disclosure and informed consent, algorithmic bias, data privacy, and the physician's professional accountability for AI-assisted care under current Texas requirements.
  • Comprehend how to utilize a five-question framework to evaluate an AI tool's evidence, validation in their own patient population, failure modes, human oversight, and data handling before incorporating it into practice.
