Medical writers everywhere are being asked: “Do you use AI in your work?”
AI is transforming the way medical writers work. But while some clients are nervous about AI use, others now demand clear policies before hiring. Many writers are left unsure of how to talk about AI with clients – or even where the boundaries lie.
Regulations are evolving quickly. Without a clear AI policy, you risk damaging client trust, losing opportunities, undermining your professional credibility and falling short of industry standards.
Imagine a client asks you to create a patient information leaflet on hypertension. You use AI to summarise the latest research studies and generate draft content.
Without a clear AI policy, the client may assume AI is doing all the work or worry about data privacy.
By having a written policy that aligns with industry standards and best practices, you can clearly explain that AI supports your work but all content is reviewed, fact-checked and aligned with regulatory standards.
That’s why I created the AI Policy Toolkit for Medical Writers – a 30-page PDF toolkit to help you:
- Define how you use (and don’t use) AI in your workflow
- Communicate your approach with confidence
- Protect confidentiality and meet compliance expectations
- Reassure clients with ready-to-go templates and scripts
- Stay ahead with regular updates and best practices
With a professional AI medical writing policy in place, you’ll show clients you’re prepared, professional and trustworthy.
