EB Medicine Updates AI Policy
While Reaffirming 100% Expert Clinical Oversight

Leading acute care CME publisher announces limited AI use in research and production workflows—clinical conclusions remain exclusively human-developed.

ATLANTA — March 13, 2026 — EB Medicine today announced an update to its policy regarding the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools in the development of its continuing medical education (CME) content for emergency medicine and urgent care clinicians. The updated policy reaffirms the organization’s longstanding commitment to expert-developed, independently peer-reviewed clinical education, while clarifying limited and controlled uses of AI to support research and production workflows.

As AI technologies continue to evolve, this update ensures EB Medicine’s CME journals and courses for acute care clinicians remain grounded in independent clinical judgment, with clearly defined safeguards to protect educational integrity.

Under the updated policy:

  • Generative or AI-assisted tools are not permitted in the creation of substantive clinical content.
  • This prohibition includes manuscripts, clinical pathways, recommendations, interpretations of evidence, and images.
  • AI tools are never used to generate, alter, or influence clinical conclusions or recommendations.

“Clinical judgment, contextual interpretation of evidence, and the realities of patient care cannot be automated,” says Andy Jagoda, MD, FACEP, Editor-in-Chief of Emergency Medicine Practice. “Our readers rely on us for trusted guidance grounded in both evidence and clinical experience. That responsibility remains firmly in human hands.”

The updated policy allows for carefully defined use of AI-enabled tools in a limited and controlled manner to:

  • Support research, organization, and production workflows
  • Draft assessment materials under defined rubrics and structured templates

All materials developed with AI support are reviewed, validated, and approved by qualified expert clinicians and editors prior to publication. Responsibility for accuracy, balance, independence, and educational integrity rests exclusively with EB Medicine’s authors and editorial leadership.

“Medicine demands nuance, skepticism, and contextual judgment,” says Tim Horeczko, MD, MSCR, FACEP, FAAP, Co-Editor-in-Chief of Pediatric Emergency Medicine Practice. “AI tools may assist with workflow efficiencies, but they cannot replicate the depth of clinical reasoning that practicing clinicians bring to patient care and medical education.”
