  • Abstract:
  • Medical chatbots, powered by advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language processing (NLP), are rapidly transforming the healthcare landscape by offering real-time, 24/7 interaction with patients for a range of tasks. These AI-driven tools are designed to assist patients in symptom checking, medication reminders, appointment scheduling, mental health support, and delivering personalized health information. By simulating human-like conversations, chatbots can ease the administrative burden on healthcare providers and enhance patient engagement, particularly in primary care, chronic disease management, and mental health services. Additionally, chatbots offer a convenient and scalable solution to address routine healthcare needs, making healthcare more accessible to underserved and remote populations. This paper provides an in- depth exploration of the applications of medical chatbots in diverse healthcare contexts, highlighting their potential to improve operational efficiency, reduce patient wait times, and ensure continuity of care through seamless integration with electronic health records (EHRs) and telemedicine platforms. Through comprehensive literature reviews and real- world case studies, the paper examines how chatbots have successfully been implemented across healthcare systems and evaluates the tangible benefits they bring in enhancing patient outcomes ensuring compliance with healthcare regulations such as HIPAA and GDPR remains critical for maintaining trust and safeguarding sensitive patient information. This paper aims to provide a holistic understanding of the current role of medical chatbots in healthcare, the technological innovations driving their development, and the regulatory frameworks needed to support their future growth. It emphasizes that while medical chatbots offer immense potential to revolutionize healthcare delivery, addressing limitations in AI capabilities, enhancing data protection, and formulating clear ethical guidelines are essential to ensuring their successful integration into global healthcare systems.
