The Ministry of Health and Prevention (MoHAP) has organised a specialised workshop to develop the National Policy for the Promotion of Smart Health Services and Artificial Intelligence in the Health Sector for the UAE.

The policy aims to formulate a comprehensive national framework that encourages the institutional adoption of artificial intelligence, guided by standards that prioritise data quality, privacy protection, and impact measurement on public health and patient experience. It also seeks to enhance the readiness of the health system to deliver more accurate, efficient and proactive services.

The workshop was attended by Ahmed Ali Al Sayegh, Minister of Health and Prevention; Dr. Hussain Al Rand, Assistant Under-Secretary for the Public Health Sector; and Dr. Lubna Al Shaali, Director of the Health Policies and Legislation Department.
