    Abstract

    In recent decades, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into health care has revolutionized diagnostics, treatment customization, and delivery. In low-resource settings, AI offers significant potential to address health care disparities exacerbated by shortages of medical professionals and other resources. However, implementing AI effectively and responsibly in these settings requires careful consideration of context-specific needs and barriers to equitable care. This article explores the practical deployment of AI in low-resource environments through a review of existing literature and interviews with experts, ranging from health care providers and administrators to AI tool developers and government consultants. The authors highlight 4 critical areas for effective AI deployment: infrastructure requirements, deployment and data management, education and training, and responsible AI practices. By addressing these aspects, the proposed framework aims to guide sustainable AI integration, minimizing risk, and enhancing health care access in underserved regions.
