1ETHICS IN IMPLEMENTATION OF AI IN HEALTH INSURANCE
Introduction
Moral Dilemma Analysis is performed and this report will discuss about the ethical decision
making framework that will be implemented in this section. Ethical issues that are present in the
health insurance sector due to the implementation of the AI is also discussed in this report.
Solutions that developers need to implement are also stated in this report.
Ethical decision making framework
The framework that is chosen for the commencing of the report is Markkula Center
Framework. This framework is chosen as the framework is concerned regarding the
Utilitarianism, right approach, fairness or the justice approach. Common and good approach of
the action is performed as per the processing of the entire functional method. This ensures the
fact that proper understanding of ethical decision making framework will help in proper
commencing of the ethical issue mitigation.
As per the usage of this framework the main aspect that is taken into consideration
includes recognizing of the issue that might act as an ethical dilemma. Understanding of the facts
that will be provisioned as per the alternative actions that can be taken. Making of decision will
get easier.
Five approaches that are present in the processing of the Markkula center Framework
helps in bettering of the functional process of the ethical decision making.
Ethical issues in implementation of AI in the field of Health Insurance
As per the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation, the entre process of
data collection and analysing needs to be changed in order to commence better treatment

process. Reshaping of the region approach data privacy is also used in the process (Miller &
Tucker 2017). According to General Data Protection Regulation, health reacted data of patent
can be transacted only with proper permission of the patients. In case the patients does not allow
the transaction of data, it is completely unethical to access the data without their prior concern,
but due to data breaching the main issue that will be taking place is that the imposter will be
having access to the data set of the patients without any acknowledgement of the patients
(Otlowski et al. 2019). The ethical issues that are present in the processing of the ethical issue
management will be present as per the commencing of the management of the ethical dilemma
includes data breaching. Data breaching is considered to be one of the major issue that will be
considering as an ethical issue in the processing of the ethical issues (O’Doherty et al. 2016). In
this health related data of the patients can be breached. This breaching of data will not procure
the fact that imposters can gain access to the data base of the hospital system that implements AI
in the processing of data management in the sector of the insurance process. This is one of the
main reason that the functional process of the entire system can be harmed. This issue is treated
as a severe ethical issue that presides in the commencement of the data center (Mohammed et al.
2017). This incurs he proper management of the data that are gathered during the treatment
process. Due to this ethical issue the patients seldom tends to use the AI system in the functional
processing of the insurance system. As the robustness of the platform of the AI based system is
not much high, the main issue that prevails is that the imposters can have unauthorized access to
the data set. This unauthorized access to data set of the patient’s treatment data might not be well
accepted by the patients as their privacy will be in stake (Miller & Tucker 2017). As per the
terminology of HIPAA, patient treatment data must not be leaked. In case the patient health
related data are leaked steps must be taken against the source of leakage. As per the framework

of the Markkula center Framework, Utilitarianism focuses on the fact that the output that will be
received after completion of the task that is being performed needs to provide good outcome.
This provisioning of getting good outcome is the sole concern of Utilitarianism. With the
implementation of the AI in the field of the health insurance sector, the output that will be
received will be benefiting the customers, but there will be issues regarding the security of the
data that are present in the data management system (Heald 2016). This insist the fact that data
can be stolen by the imposters and can use it in manner that will affect the functional process in a
negative manner. Another aspect of the common good approach, the main consideration that is
needed to be performed includes improper management of the common good approach (Trang
2017). This common good approach is considered as the actions that are to be taken in order to
commence the lifestyle of the people involved in the project in a better manner. With the help of
the implementation of the AI process the main aspect that is taken into consideration is that the
convenience of the health insurance processing gets easier, but security related issues prevail.
This prevailing of security issues regarding fata breaching of the patients treatment process.
Hence framework of the Markkula center Framework helps in understanding the ethical issue
that is present in the commencing of the patient health data breaching process (Talesh 2018).
Hence for mitigating the issue that is present includes the fact that data breaching of the health
related information, the IS developers needs to implement security measures by implementing
password and 2 way security system.
Due to the implementation of AI in the field of the insurance process the main issue that
is present includes the fact that genetic data might get disclosed. This disclosing of genetic data
will lead to a massacre in health industry (Balsa & Triunfo 2018). As per the norm of the
insurance companies provisioning of genetics data was considered to be very important. This is

one of the main reason that functioning process of the AI implementation might act as an ethical
concern regarding the process of the data management that will be stored n the data base of the
AI platform. It is noticed that the genetic testing organization are capable of providing vital
information regarding the ancestors. This data are capable of securing the prospect that
management of the data system will be performed as per the processing of the data segregation
process (Capone et al. 2016). This aspect of data segregation helps in understanding the issues an
individual might face in future that are health related. Not only the issue that an individual might
face but also from which ancestor he will be receiving be same will also be stated. With the help
of AI platform performing of the genetic analysis, identifying of the predicted issues will be
benefitting the doctors in understanding the disease that a patient might be diagnosed with
(Agunwamba et al. 2017). This provides high convenience to the patients as well as the doctors.
Despite the convenience that is provided, high level of ethical issue will arise. This rising of
ethical issue imbibes the aspect that the data that are gained need not be visible to the other
people. As per GINA, genetics related data needs to be stored in a manner that strangers need not
get proper security measures (Wang & Lee 2018). As per the ethical issue that is present in the
usage of the platform of AI in the health insurance system. The major issue that is present in the
terminology of the system includes the fact that the data that are stored in the data base of the
data base of the AI platform is accessed in unauthorized manner. As the robustness of the AI
based platform is often low and data breaching occurs (Canhoto & Arp 2017). This occurring of
data breaching includes ethical issues as per the IS professional who will be designing the entire
scenario of the management system. As per the processing of the framework of the Markkula
center Framework, the main aspect that is taken into consideration will include comparing the
processing with the Utilitarianism. As per this system, the main aspect that will be taken into

consideration incudes the fact that the output that will be generated needs to provide highest
benefits. All the criteria are fulfilled as per the Utilitarianism as the benefits that are present are
huge, despite tis benefits ethical issues arise. This rise in ethical issue ensures the fact that
genetics related data might get disclosed. This disclosing of the genetics related data have been
affecting the business processing (Al-Saggaf 2015). As the robustness of the AI platform that is
used is not performed in a proper manner, the main issue that will be received includes the fact
that proper management of the data that are gathered needs to be stored in a manner that will be
robust in nature. With gathering the data of genetics an imposter can easily harm the patient.
Withstanding the processing of the data and harming the patients, maintaining of privacy and
security is one of the major aspect that has been ethically affecting the functioning of the data set
that are gathered by the health insurance organization (Klitzman 2018). To mitigate this ethical
issue the developing team needs to increase the robustness of the data base, where the data will
be stored and hence this includes the fact that better processing of the data management will be
performed as per the commencing of the data with higher security. This provisioning of higher
security will protect the data sets from the imposters as they will not be able to gain access to the
data. This is one of the main reason that proper management of the data processing gets affected
in a positive way. The severity of this this ethical issue is so high that the processing of the
management was not being performed by the HIPAA (Ravi & Kamaruddin 2017). This section is
considered as one of the major sector health insurance process. This processing of the health care
system and insurance sector needs to improvise the security and robustness of their platform as
this will include proper management of the security of the data that will be collected (Harmanci
et al. 2018). As per the framework of the Markkula center Framework, virtue approach aspect of
the ethical decision making needs to be honest and characterized with honesty. As per GINA the
