To balance patient safety, cost, efficiency, and professional integrity, we need to understand the views and arguments health professionals have for and against the implementation of such systems. The current study aimed to explore emergency primary care personnel\u2019s perspectives on artificial intelligence-based decision support systems in emergencies in the municipality.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Method:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study used a qualitative design with online, semistructured interviews with 12 primary emergency health care personnel. A purposive sampling strategy was used, and participants were recruited either from EPC center or municipal healthcare institutions receiving services from the EPCRU.

Aspects of skepticism and confidence were also discussed. However, they perceived that AI-based decision support systems could be ideal digital sparring partners. Moreover, all the participants underlined the importance of involving intended users when developing and implementing decision support systems.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study emphasizes the essential role of health personnel in decision-making processes in emergency primary care, as well as in the implementation processes of AI in these services. AI is suggested as a supportive tool that provides safe and trustworthy solutions.
