What the paper says

This study contributes to the limited body of research on AI adoption from the perspective of health-care leaders in developing countries, particularly in Uganda. Unlike previous studies that focus on general AI acceptance, this research provides a leadership-centric analysis of the barriers and strategic approaches necessary for AI implementation. The insights generated can inform policymakers, health-care administrators and technology developers on designing more effective AI adoption frameworks tailored to resource-constrained settings.
