AI Policy for Cybermedex


At Cybermedex, we recognize the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in enhancing healthcare services and the secure management of medical records. As a company operating within the Canadian healthcare sector, we are committed to developing, deploying, and utilizing AI in ways that align with the highest ethical standards, relevant healthcare laws, and regulatory frameworks. Our policies reflect our responsibility to ensure AI technologies contribute to the health and well-being of Canadians while maintaining trust, safety, and accountability.

Our commitment to responsible AI is defined by the following key principles:

1. Accuracy & Reliability

AI-enabled systems are designed to ensure reliable outputs for healthcare professionals and patients. We implement rigorous quality control, continuously evaluating system performance to provide accurate, evidence-based support to clinical decisions and operations.

2. Safe & Ethical Use

Our AI technologies will uphold fundamental human rights, promote fairness, and respect Canada’s diverse communities. We prioritize patient safety and commit to embedding ethical considerations into our AI applications, aligning them with Canada’s healthcare values. AI deployments will strictly comply with the principles outlined by the Canadian Human Rights Act and other relevant laws.

3. Transparency & Interpretability

Transparency is essential to fostering trust. We provide clear explanations of how AI algorithms are used, including their limitations. Both healthcare providers and patients will have visibility into how data is utilized, ensuring they remain informed about AI-supported decisions.

4. Accountability

We take full responsibility for the outcomes of our AI systems and their impact on healthcare delivery. In partnership with trusted vendors, we exercise due diligence to select and monitor AI technologies. Should unintended consequences arise, we are committed to taking swift action to rectify them and improve our practices through continuous learning.

5. Privacy Security and Data Protection

Safeguarding patient privacy is paramount. We adhere to the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and provincial health privacy regulations such as Ontario's PHIPA or BC’s PIPA, ensuring data protection is prioritized. Robust governance practices are in place to maintain secure data environments throughout the AI lifecycle.

6. Bias Mitigation

We are vigilant in identifying and mitigating biases within AI systems that may arise from training data or algorithmic design. Our AI solutions undergo regular audits to detect, evaluate, and address any biased outcomes, ensuring equitable treatment for all patient groups.

7. Continuous Improvement

Healthcare AI requires ongoing refinement. We use a risk-based approach to regularly assess our AI systems and incorporate feedback from healthcare providers, patients, and regulatory bodies. Staying ahead of emerging best practices and ethical standards is a priority in our development process.

8. Human Oversight and Intervention

AI will not replace human judgment in healthcare. Our systems are designed to complement clinical expertise, ensuring that healthcare professionals have the final say in AI-assisted decisions. We promote collaboration between human insight and AI to achieve the best possible patient outcomes.

9. Collaboration and External Expertise

We believe in the power of collaboration. Cybermedex actively engages with Canadian AI experts, healthcare institutions, and regulatory bodies to enhance the safety, quality, and efficacy of our solutions.

10. Impact Assessment and Monitoring

All AI technologies undergo rigorous pre-deployment assessments to evaluate their potential impact and risks. Post-deployment, we continuously monitor systems to ensure compliance with internal policies and healthcare standards.

11. User Education and Empowerment

We invest in training healthcare professionals and employees to understand the capabilities and limitations of AI technologies. Educational programs ensure responsible AI usage and empower users to effectively integrate AI into their daily healthcare workflows.

12. Legal and Regulatory Compliance

Our AI practices comply with all relevant Canadian laws and regulations, including healthcare-specific frameworks such as Canada Health Infoway standards. We are committed to aligning with any future AI-specific regulations to ensure continued ethical and lawful use.
