    An In-Depth Analysis of the Adoption of Large Language Models in Clinical Settings: A Fuzzy Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Approach
    (University of Bridgeport, 2024-08-05) Aldwean, Abdullah; Tenney, Dan
    The growing capabilities of large language models (LLMs) in the medical field hold promising transformational change. The evolution of LLMs, such as BioBERT and MedGPT, has created new opportunities for enhancing the quality of healthcare services, improving clinical operational efficiency, and addressing numerous existing healthcare challenges. However, the adoption of these innovative technologies into clinical settings is a complex, multifaceted decision problem influenced by various factors. This dissertation aims to identify and rank the challenges facing the integration of LLMs into healthcare clinical settings and evaluate different adoption solutions. To achieve this goal, a combined approach based on the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) and the Fuzzy Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (Fuzzy TOPSIS) has been employed to prioritize these challenges and then use them to rank potential LLM adoption solutions based on experts’ opinion. However, utilizing LLMs technologies in clinical settings faces several challenges across societal, technological, organizational, regulatory, and economic (STORE) perspectives. The findings indicate that regulatory concerns, such as accountability and compliance, are considered the most critical challenges facing LLMs adoption decision. This research provides a thorough and evidence-based assessment of LLMs in the clinical settings. It offers a structured framework that helps decision-makers navigate the complexities of leveraging such disruptive innovations in clinical practice.
