Treating the age of medical misinformation.
Dr. Michel van Harten, CEO of myTomorrows , helping patients discover and access treatments.
They say, “Knowledge is power.” But does this platitude hold true when so much content online can be classified as misinformation? Where do we draw the line between empowered and misled?
Credible information is increasingly harder to find given the sheer volume of online content, the abundance of misinformation on social media and the inevitable inaccuracies of unproven early-stage generative AI. And in the realm of healthcare, this can be especially dangerous. The consequences of medical misinformation—or even information that may be accurate but isn't personally relevant—can be dire not only for patients but also for healthcare professionals (HCPs) and the wider BioPharma industry.
Although medical misinformation is indeed a symptom of social media and AI, to overcome it, we must recognize both tools also have the power to help solve the problem.
Smartphone and social media accessibility have greatly aided in accelerating the global spread of digital information. Unfortunately, health-related misinformation travels just as fast and often steals the spotlight.
Medical misinformation is especially rampant on TikTok , where the core audience of Gen-Z users with no medical or pharmaceutical certification increasingly promote prescription drugs or unproven treatments to the masses. Although confidently articulated, often with the best intentions, much of this “advice” is wildly misinformed, at times encouraging viewers to forgo verified preventative care or potentially lifesaving treatments for “easier” alternatives. Even if viewers see information that might be credible in some circumstances, the same information may not be relevant for all patients, who each have a unique medical background. Too often, benefits are exaggerated and risks played down—a formula especially dangerous for adolescents and those suffering from chronic conditions.

One wrongly informed decision can yield serious or even fatal consequences. From January through March 2020, over 5,800 people were hospitalized after a rumor circulated online that Covid-19 could be “cured” by drinking concentrated alcohol. Sixty people developed permanent blindness, and 800 lost their lives.
Compared to just five years ago, AI is now commonplace in our society, with many individuals turning to generative AI tools for uncertified medical advice. This can easily backfire.
In one study , ChatGPT gave inaccurate answers about the most common side effects associated with 26 out of 30 drugs. In another , ChatGPT incorrectly answered 74% of questions submitted by licensed pharmacists, providing fabricated references for many of its responses. In one instance, it even denied the existence of any problematic interaction between Paxlovid, an antiviral drug notably used to treat Covid-19, and Verelan, a drug used to lower blood pressure—a mix that could lower a patient’s blood pressure to deadly levels.
Although generative AI can be an enticing tool for initial, quick drug-related information, licensed healthcare providers and pharmacists with qualifications and decades of experience should be the only ones confirming diagnoses and recommending treatments.
Fortunately, social media and AI also offer solutions to the very issues they often create. Community groups within platforms such as Facebook can offer well-informed information and support to and from individuals suffering from similar conditions. For example, EndoMetropolis is a group comprised of over 23,000 members who share valuable experiences and tips for managing endometriosis. Naturally, the information shared in such groups must be discussed with a treating physician before being implemented, but the groups themselves can be a helpful starting point in sourcing relevant information.
Some HCPs have started pages of their own to offer medical opinions and answer questions, while a growing number of registered physicians, often with an abundant number of followers, are using TikTok and Instagram to debunk myths and spread awareness on various medical topics. Influencers living with chronic diseases are also using social media to address stigmas by sharing knowledge and personal stories of how they manage their conditions. For example, Brooke Eby spreads awareness to over 126,000 Instagram followers about her experience with early-onset ALS. Again, not all influencers are created equal and the information they share must be vetted with care.
When it comes to emerging technologies, AI is providing medical practitioners with more efficient means of detecting, diagnosing and predicting the progression of several major diseases. Recent tests of "smart" stethoscopes , for instance, which pair AI with echocardiogram technology, show that they're successfully detecting signs of heart failure earlier than standard practices. Likewise, AI models trained on thousands of digital eye scans to predict the progression of wet AMD—one of the leading causes of vision loss worldwide—are already proving more accurate on average than licensed opticians. Similarly, new AI capabilities are proving useful for doctors prescribing combinations of drugs and personalizing treatment plans for various diseases.
In addition, AI can help physicians streamline workflows and handle manual processes such as transcribing patient conversations, triaging, prefilling and queuing medication orders and referrals, and automating appointment scheduling and paperwork filing. This allows HCPs to spend more time offering personal attention to patients and can minimize burnout.
AI can also be used to bolster accessibility to often cumbersome processes like clinical trial identification, pre-screening and recruitment, speeding up these time-intensive processes for physicians and lowering complex informational barriers for patients and caregivers. HCPs can also use specialized AI tools to efficiently navigate vast databases of clinical trials—including the National Institute of Health’s registry and the WHO’s International Clinical Trials Registry Platform —to help refer patients to the most appropriate treatment options.
Although medical misinformation can result from social media consumption and inaccuracies of unproven early-stage generative AI, the same tools can also bring clarity to online medical discourse and enhance crucial medical processes. If medical professionals are the ones leading the charge to embrace these new-age tools, the prognosis for healthcare will be looking up in the digital age.

https://mhclgdigital.blog.gov.uk/2024/09/09/adaptive-funding-8-ways-to-make-funding-effective-in-solving-complex-problems/
Most of the problems that today’s governments are trying to address are complex. If they had a simple answer, they probably would have been solved by now.
By ‘complex’, I mean that various factors interact in unpredictable ways to produce unpredictable outcomes, and we can therefore only understand why things happen in retrospect. As per Dave Snowden’s Cynefin framework, complex problems differ from ‘complicated’ problems, which also involve a wide range of factors, but once these are analysed, we can make reliable predictions and have confidence in our solutions. In Donald Rumsfeld’s words, complicated problems deal with “known unknowns”, whereas complex problems operate in the realm of “unknown unknowns”.
As government programmes continue to tackle many complex challenges, there is an opportunity to evolve our delivery approaches to ensure they are optimally structured to deal with complexity.
The more traditional ‘waterfall’ approach to project management, which puts more emphasis on sticking to long-term project plans with clearly defined boundaries and pre-planned timelines, can be an ideal way to manage complicated projects, because with the right expertise and analysis, you can clearly define the problem and build a solution that you are confident will solve it.
But when you are dealing with complexity, this comparatively rigid approach often results in delays, overspend and solutions that you ultimately discover are not fit for purpose. That’s where ‘Agile’ comes in.
In 2001, 17 software engineers met at a ski resort in Utah to discuss their approaches to software development. That meeting ultimately resulted in the publication of the ‘ Manifesto for Agile Software Development ’, which set out some of the values and principles they had adopted to deal with the complex problem of building software that meets user needs.
The Manifesto set out 4 core values:
Since the publication of the Agile Manifesto, this approach has been successfully applied in various other sectors, including government services. In 2009, Henry David Venema and John Drexhage made a case for public policies which embrace the Agile mindset in Creating Adaptive Policies :
"Our world is more complex than ever – highly interconnected, owing to advances in communication and transportation; and highly dynamic, owing to the scale of impact of our collective actions… Policies that cannot perform effectively under dynamic and uncertain conditions run the risk of not achieving their intended purpose, and becoming a hindrance to the ability of individuals, communities and businesses to cope with – and adapt to – change. Far from serving the public good, these policies may actually get in the way."
This sentiment has been echoed in a recent paper, The Radical How , which advocates powerfully for an approach to delivering government programmes “that deliberately and specifically acknowledges complexity and uncertainty, and mitigates for both”.
One of the big ‘levers’ government has at its disposal is funding. Whether we are dealing with climate change, housing or healthcare, we can only go so far without fronting up some cash.
But funding programmes tend to be delivered according to the waterfall approach to project management. With the upcoming Spending Review offering an opportunity to reset how government funding is delivered, the time is ripe for a shift towards a more adaptive approach.
The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG), has already started to design funds to account for complexity and uncertainty. But, as far as I can tell, this has happened because different teams could see that the rigid approach previously in place may not be working, rather than because they were consciously trying to create Agile funding programmes.
Adaptive funding is about building flexibility and adaptability into the design and delivery of funding programmes, to account for the complex and uncertain nature of the problems the funding is trying to solve. E mbracing the adaptive policy framework can help policymakers develop a coherent approach to programme design, which should help the government make progress against the complex missions it has set itself.
Based loosely on Darren Swanson et al.’s 7 guidelines for crafting adaptive policies, and inspired by policy developments I have seen during my time within MHCLG, I have come up with 8 ways to design and deliver adaptive funding:
The idea that central government knows best is rarely true, and usually leads to crude ‘one-size-fits-all’ policies. Different local manifestations of an issue add additional layers of complexity which make already complex problems even more difficult to solve. Local leaders often have a more detailed understanding of the problems in their areas than those in central government. Giving devolved institutions and local authorities greater flexibility to deliver funding according to local priorities and opportunities and allowing different places to come up with different solutions has the potential to increase the chance of success across many policy domains.
Designing funding programmes based on assumptions that have not been tested with users can lead to huge costs if they turn out to be wrong. To set a programme up for success, policy teams should engage with users (for example, funding recipients or delivery organisations) to test their riskiest assumptions before funding is delivered. This will allow funding teams to refine the design of the programme before huge costs have been incurred.
Even if we test assumptions with users before launching a programme, in a complex environment there is always an element of uncertainty about how successful the programme will be. To reduce risk as much as possible, why not start small and scale up as you gain more confidence in each hypothesis? The authors of The Radical How are right, however, in cautioning against simply running lots of pilots. One problem is that pilots often test a whole policy solution rather than a specific hypothesis, which doesn’t always give you the nuanced understanding you need. To rectify this, pilots or experiments should be explicitly designed to test the specific hypotheses upon which the success of the programme depends. It’s also critical that, instead of waiting for a pilot to end before evaluating its success, we seek to learn throughout the pilot.
Although HM Treasury recommends that government interventions should be evaluated during the intervention as well as after, most funding programmes tend to prioritise the latter. While these evaluations often provide invaluable insights, they usually come to light too late to influence the design of the programme. Conducting user testing will enable teams to iterate based on real-time feedback and correct any design features based on faulty assumptions. Departments should also monitor and evaluate the success of different local initiatives, to identify which solutions are working well, and which are not. By doing this, government can highlight, champion and encourage examples of good practice.
Once a funding team identifies that an assumption is incorrect, or an element of the policy is not working, it’s important that the team is able to make iterations. This will not be possible in all cases (particularly if the fund has already been designed according to a waterfall approach), but where such changes do not cause significant disruption, in-flight course corrections can help to steer the programme in the right direction. For example, if a fund has multiple ‘bidding rounds’, amending the guidance between rounds may help to improve the quality or quantity of future applications.
As it is often difficult (or impossible) to predict what the best solution to a complex problem is, where possible, we should avoid requiring funding recipients to set out highly detailed plans from the outset. This does, of course, involve some risk, as a department would have limited assurance at the outset that the recipient will deliver what it wants (or at least what the department thinks it wants). But there is also significant risk in tying an organisation down to an overly specified plan which has not been tested. This approach might not be appropriate for all organisation types, but local and devolved authorities should be given the space to develop their plans as more becomes known.
Linked to the above, government should give local leaders flexibility to make swift changes once it becomes clear that the original plan is no longer fit for purpose. For example, if private sector match funding ceases to be available, a project will need to be re-scoped. Providing trusted funding recipients with more autonomy to adapt their projects and programmes will enable them to respond nimbly to the risks and opportunities of a dynamic and ever-changing world.
The difficulty of tackling a complex problem is often compounded by a complex system of government interventions. Taking a step back and adopting a ‘systems thinking’ approach can help to identify where government has made things unnecessarily difficult for external partners to navigate. Streamlining and simplifying the funding landscape can help to maximise impact by reducing duplicative and unnecessary administrative costs. Even if we cannot make the problem less complex, we can at least try to avoid compounding this complexity with byzantine ‘solutions’.
If this adaptive approach is to be given the best chance of success, there are some foundations which should first be in place:
As with any policy approach, there will be trade-offs. For instance, an adaptive approach to funding policy may not provide delivery partners with the certainty they understandably crave. But by giving grant recipients flexibility in delivery, in-flight changes should not create so many issues, particularly if those changes respond to user feedback and are tested before roll-out.
You might also argue that this approach will lead to more unequal outcomes across the country. It is true that giving places more flexibility will inevitably lead to some areas doing better than others. But if recipients are also encouraged to start small, test their hypotheses, and remain vigilant to approaches that are being tested elsewhere, more places should start to move in a positive direction. By embracing an adaptive approach to funding, we have a chance to reset how we work with public, private and third sector organisations, and give ourselves the best chance of achieving our missions.
