Abstract
Background Public healthcare systems are increasingly relying on artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to meet growing healthcare needs. Because AI technologies are complex and costly to develop, public-private partnerships (PPPs) between digital companies and university hospital centres are being promoted as a key for the successful development and implementation of AI solutions. This article aims to shed light on stakeholders’ perspectives on the intellectual property (IP) and value sharing of AI technologies developed by PPPs and how their practical experiences can affect the success or failure of such PPPs. Methods Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 29 stakeholders concerned with and/or involved in digital health technologies in a large Canadian university hospital centre. Data were collected and analysed through a mixed deductive-inductive approach. Results The analysis revealed three key themes highlighting AI IP issues of concern for PPP stakeholders. First, the collaborations and contributions required from all stakeholders to develop AI technologies of clinical and commercial value are highly complex and often unclear. Second, the lack of institutional and commercial recognition of clinicians’ essential contributions to AI solution development results in competing academic and business imperatives that hinder their engagement in PPPs. Finally, public healthcare systems’ strategic use of AI requires new policies adapted to the digital economy where IP plays a central role in value generation and sharing. Conclusion For PPPs developing AI healthcare technologies to be successful, updated policies clarifying public healthcare systems’ strategic use of AI are required as well as clear value-sharing frameworks between stakeholders.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
