Principles for Human - AI Interactions at Circle Medical

We make patient safety and privacy our first priority with all decision-making that directly or indirectly affects patient care.

At Circle Medical We Value:

  1. Data Privacy & Security
    • All of our AI models and tools are HIPAA compliant.
  2. Reliable & Ethical Use
    • The output of our AI models and tools is overseen by humans.
      • All clinical decisions are made by licensed medical providers in collaboration with each patient.
    • We believe knowledge empowers our company and our patients to make informed decisions and voice concerns about the use and outcomes of AI technology.
    • We strive to be inclusive and fair.
      • We challenge uniformity, and broadly consider the potential unintended consequences of our decisions and models.
      • Interdisciplinary and diverse teams are involved in the deployment and management of our AI technologies, including those skeptical of AI's role in healthcare.
      • We employ collaborative decision-making with openness to criticism and have evolving best practices.
      • We strive to ensure that training data used for our AI models and tools is diverse, representative, and free from bias.
  3. Transparency & Accountability
    • We ensure that decisions related to AI are scrutinized and made transparently and that there is accountability for these decisions.
    • We only deploy AI models that have undergone evaluation and testing, and when deployed we have continuous monitoring and feedback in place.
  4. Guardrails and Guidelines in Primary Care
    • Medicine is a science and an art. We put each individual patient and their unique needs first in every clinical encounter. Guidelines and guardrails are starting points from which medical care and decisions are considered.
