Take adverse drug interactions as an example. The training data for drug interactions mostly come from adults, so the resulting models do not apply in a pediatric setting. When the models are let loose in pediatric hospital, a high percentage of the drug interaction warnings are false positives, so these type of warnings tend to be ignored.
It seems that the trend is to use decision support with a lot of human oversight and investigation of the raw data to see if the model conclusions are correct.
