Artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare is a state of the art for clinical and non-clinical interventions. Its prospects have enhanced the concept of care with great emphasis on holistic health management, starting from clinical research, patient engagement to drug development and delivery. Indigenous smart techniques have been formulated using AI to understand the diseases in more dynamic and comprehensive ways. Therefore, in this work, the attributes of AI used in designing healthcare based computation tools are discussed. Micro and nano devices employed in point of care diagnosis and remote care using AI are reviewed. However, there are specific challenges of ethics and privacy which are listed comprehensively in the present work. The objective of this work is to examine and access the opportunities of AI in healthcare, including challenges and potential applications. Also, it is concluded that more research work will be needed for the prospective accomplishment of this approach.
