This free checklist distills key takeaways from Dr. Vernette Grant's peer-reviewed PPTO Framework (People, Process, Technology, Operations) into a quick-reference governance readiness tool.

Use it to evaluate where your institution stands across 4 critical areas:

People — Have you identified the essential roles for effective AI governance?

Process — Are your governance workflows comprehensive yet practical?

Technology — Do you have mandatory equity and fairness assessment requirements in place?

Operations — Have you made the structural investments for cross-functional collaboration: shared vocabulary, regular meetings, and clear escalation paths?

Designed for hospital leaders, governance committees, and researchers studying AI ethics in healthcare.

Based on the PPTO Framework published in the Open Journal of Business and Management (Grant, V. and Levasseur, R., 2026).
