Artificial Intelligence in Primary Care Decision-Making: Survey of Healthcare Professionals in Saudi Arabia

AI adoption in primary care is hindered by low familiarity and usage, as well as several barriers, including cost, lack of training, and concerns about the reliability of AI systems. However, there is optimism about AI's potential to support clinical decision-making. Overcoming these barriers through targeted education, infrastructure investment, and further research is essential for promoting AI integration in primary care and realizing its potential benefits for clinical practice.

Abstract

AI adoption in primary care is hindered by low familiarity and usage, as well as several barriers, including cost, lack of training, and concerns about the reliability of AI systems. However, there is optimism about AI's potential to support clinical decision-making. Overcoming these barriers through targeted education, infrastructure investment, and further research is essential for promoting AI integration in primary care and realizing its potential benefits for clinical practice.
