Background:

Municipal healthcare services face increasing demands for efficient documentation and information exchange.
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) presents potential solutions but requires careful consideration of contextual factors.
Readiness for AI adoption varies across healthcare settings.

Purpose of the Study:

To assess the needs, contextual factors, adoption barriers, and readiness of municipal healthcare services for AI-supported documentation solutions.
To explore healthcare professionals', ICT personnel's, and legal experts' perspectives on AI in documentation.
To identify key challenges and opportunities for implementing AI in municipal healthcare.

Main Methods:

A multidisciplinary team collaborated with two municipalities in Southern Norway.
Three participatory workshops were conducted involving healthcare professionals, ICT personnel, and legal experts.
A needs assessment approach was employed to evaluate readiness and barriers.

Main Results:

Healthcare professionals expressed optimism regarding AI's potential to improve documentation and information exchange.
Significant challenges were identified, including system integration, usability concerns, and establishing trust in AI solutions.
Readiness for AI adoption is influenced by technical, practical, and trust-related factors.

Conclusions:

Municipal healthcare services are cautiously optimistic about AI-driven documentation but require strategies to address identified barriers.
Successful implementation hinges on improving system integration, enhancing usability, and building trust in AI technologies.
Further research and tailored implementation plans are necessary to facilitate AI adoption in these settings.
