New Note Integration

• BMJ Review (2026-04-14):
  • Rapid adoption of AI in healthcare outpaces governance capabilities.
  • Existing frameworks focus on high-level ethics rather than practical implementation.
  • Need for practice-oriented AI governance to assess risk and embed ai-oversight into existing processes.
