AI in Healthcare: Regulation, Ethics, and Implementation — Public Policy Exchange webinar, 20 October
Date: Tuesday 20 October 2026, 09:30–13:00 BST | Format: Online webinar | Organiser: Public Policy Exchange
As AI moves from pilots into routine NHS deployment, the regulatory and governance questions are getting sharper: data privacy, algorithmic bias, transparency of AI decision-making, accountability when AI influences clinical decisions, and workforce readiness.
This half-day Public Policy Exchange webinar examines the UK landscape — NICE and MHRA frameworks, the NHS AI Lab’s legacy, national screening pilots, and the use of generative AI for clinical documentation — alongside the ethical and policy challenges that still need resolving.
Speakers include
• Alex Lawrence, Improvement Fellow, Innovation and Improvement team, The Health Foundation
• Stephanie Kumpunen, Senior Fellow, The Nuffield Trust
The session is aimed at policymakers, NHS leaders, regulators and health-tech organisations working through AI assurance. Relevant for anyone navigating MHRA/NICE expectations or building a governance case for AI deployment.
