Background: The development of health care information technology and the emergence of artificial intelligence have yielded tools to improve the quality of several health care processes. Aim: to assess the health care providers‟ perception about artificial intelligence applications at Main Assiut University Hospital. Study design: A descriptive survey design was used. Setting: This study was conducted at Main Assuit University Hospital. Subjects: the study subjects included three types of health care providers (no=763): physicians (no=202), nurses (no=535), and technicians (no=26). Data collection tool: The study data collected through self – administered questionnaire which consists of personal characteristics data and perception about artificial intelligence questionnaire. Results: The overall perception of studied healthcare providers about artificial intelligence applications was moderate. The highest percentage of studied Physicians had a high level of perception about artificial intelligence applications. The highest percentage of studied Nurses had a moderate level of perception. The highest percentage of studied Technicians had an equal percent of both high and moderate level of perception. Conclusions: There were highly statistical significant differences between the perception levels about artificial intelligence applications with job type and educational qualification.
