Implementation of AI would help the clinician shortage.

The AI can prompt a nurse to ask relevant questions and perform relevant observations. And then the AI can recommend appropriate diagnostic tests and/or treatment.

A doctor can quickly review and approve.

That would lower the cost of care by shifting work to less skilled employees and increasing the productivity of doctors.

There is already quite a bit of AI in healthcare. After decades in healthcare I can tell you it makes it worse. Providers miss many important things because they miss or workaround all of the prompts.
They have stopped listening to your grandma or your only child when they are in crisis. Get real healthcare with concierge care.

“ A doctor can quickly review and approve”

Ah yes. This train is already far down the track.

But what the “doctor” cannot do is FAIL TO APPROVE.

AI would not help the nurse at all. That's just another expense to add to healthcare. Nurses and doctors are trained to assess, they don't need a computer for that. AI cannot listen to breath and bowel sounds, do a neuro assessment, evaluate wounds, ambulate and bathe patients, do dressing changes, start IVs etc.Actually, the introduction of computerized medical records has created more work for caregivers and has cost the healthcare system billions of dollars.
