Are Patients Protected from Healthcare Algorithms?

Physical therapists are considering algorithms, such as Treatment Based Classification, to help improve patient care.

But, according to this TED talk, algorithms sometimes run amok, conflicting with one another in an endless loop.

Such an endless loop may have caused the 2:45 "Flash Crash" that caused $1 trillion dollars to just disappear

Healthcare algorithms can provide clinical decision support in Electronic Medical Records (EMR).

If they can behave anything like financial algorithms then physical therapists must demand proper protection for patients before using them.
