TL;DR

A reproducible evaluation of safety and access control for Medicare.IO is reported, a transparent case study of how an ambitious student prototype can be transformed into a more testable, safety-aware system.

Abstract

Healthcare software prototypes usually have conversational help, scheduling, role-specific dashboards, and real-time data. Their evaluations focus more on feature lists than on failure modes. This paper reports a reproducible evaluation of safety and access control for Medicare. React, Node.js/Express, MongoDB, and socket.io. AI.IO educational health care platform. We froze a 20-prompt safety benchmark covering emergencies, first aid, medication use, mental health and general questions. We defined eight source-level security checks, including JSON Web Token middleware, role guards, appointment ownership, patient-only creation, password hashing, secret handling and Socket.IO room access. The baseline deterministic chatbot passed 7 out of 20 prompts (35%) and 5 out of 8 security checks. The dynamic loopback test also showed that an unauthenticated client could join the doctor telemetry room. Remediation introduced specific intent-matching, explicit high-risk routes, authenticated socket.io middleware, room-level role restrictions, and appointment ownership enforcement. Our final benchmark passed all 20 prompts and all eight source-level checks. The study does not claim clinical efficacy: no patient records, clinician participants, diagnostic model, or clinical outcomes were assessed. The Atlas network allowlist blocked database-backed exploitation and post-remediation dynamic socket tests, which were reported as unexecuted. Thus, the contribution is a transparent case study of how an ambitious student prototype can be transformed into a more testable, safety-aware system.

A CLOSED-LOOP AGE-FRIENDLY MEDICAL PLATFORM: FROM AI CONSULTATION TO POST-DIAGNOSIS CARE

This study designs and evaluates a WeChat mini-program that provides closed-loop, age-friendly medical support for older adults. The platform integrates AI consultation, hospital navigation, escort-service tracking, prescription recognition, medication reminders, and family health archives through a four-layer architecture consisting of a front end, FastAPI service layer, AI engine, and local data layer. Functional tests covered consultation, ordering, tracking, OCR prescription processing, security, and weak-network scenarios. AI consultation returned compliant reference suggestions rather than definitive diagnoses, and core pages loaded within one second. In usability testing, 20 older participants completed seven representative tasks with an overall completion rate of 88.6%, a mean task time of 50.3 seconds, and a SUS score of 77.8. Clear prescription images reached 94% field-level OCR accuracy, while the LLM verification layer flagged dosage and instruction risks. The results indicate that an integrated consultation-escort-follow-up workflow can reduce digital barriers and support safer post-diagnosis management in community healthcare settings.

Challenges and Advances in Arduino- Enabled Healthcare Information Systems: Systematic Review

This study collected literature from major databases and revealed that all researchers addressed security aspects, such as basic authentication and privacy, but they neglected cryptographic measures, which remain the weakest point of execution in Arduino-based medical systems.

Artificial intelligence-based software as a medical device: regulatory evolution toward continuous oversight

This structured narrative review examines how AI-SaMD regulation is moving beyond single-point premarket evaluation toward continuous and dynamic oversight, and synthesizes five evidence dimensions central to ongoing regulatory assurance: data evidence, algorithm evidence, software and cybersecurity evidence, clinical scenario and human factors evidence, and real-world data/real-world evidence with change management.

The Most Dangerous Thing in Health Care Isn't AI. It's What's Underneath It.

Hospitals and insurers face financial pressure to use artificial intelligence (AI) but are deploying it on top of older systems that cannot show what the AI actually did. Documented cases show algorithms denying care at very high error rates with almost no outside check. Autonomous AI agents make this worse, because they can act differently from one run to the next. Deterministic, explainable AI tools and compliance-ready cloud platforms already exist for regulated healthcare, and they work with the existing hospitals’ infrastructure. What is still missing is agreement on what ‘verified’ means: a shared, open, independent standard, not a vendor’s word that its own system is safe. Key issues:• Financial strain is pushing adoption of AI, and oversight has not kept pace.• Documented AI-assisted denials show high reversal rates on appeal, alongside very low appeal rates.• Non-deterministic AI agents cannot be certified once; they require continuous verification.• Deterministic, explainable AI tooling, cryptographic methods, and decentralized solutions are already in production in regulated life sciences and interoperate with hospitals’ existing cloud infrastructure.• The remaining gap is a shared, open, independent standard that defines ‘verified’ because verification cannot belong to the party being verified.

A pharmacist-overseen, artificial intelligence-enabled model for provider-side prior authorization: From burden to opportunity (PAVE-1).

Prior authorization (PA) imposes substantial administrative burdens on clinicians, contributing to burnout, delayed care, and excess health care spending. Artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a tool to automate PA tasks in managed care pharmacy, yet concerns persist regarding transparency, bias, and overreliance on autonomous systems. This is particularly true in payer-deployed AI systems that may deny claims without adequate clinical review. This viewpoint proposes a pharmacist-overseen, AI-enabled system designed for provider organizations and health systems as an optimal model, integrating clinical expertise across the AI system's design, triage logic, clinical review, and continuous improvement to ensure clinical rigor and operational efficiency. A conceptual workflow illustrates the AI system handling routine data extraction and submissions while routing complex cases to pharmacists, who verify appropriateness against guidelines and payer criteria. Benefits could include reduced prescriber workload, higher first pass approval rates, and scalable PA management, aligning with Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services interoperability mandates. Collaborative implementation among payers, pharmacy benefit managers, providers, and vendors, supported by targeted research, could advance PA's evolution from barrier to enabler of value-based care.
