Bill Summary
This act would require healthcare providers and healthcare facilities to inform patients of the use of artificial intelligence to memorialize patient visits. This act would take effect upon passage.
AI Summary
This bill, known as the "Use of Artificial Intelligence by Healthcare Providers Notification Act," requires healthcare providers and healthcare facilities to inform patients when artificial intelligence (AI), which is defined as technology simulating human intelligence like natural language processing or machine learning, is used to document patient visits, whether in-person or through telehealth. The bill also clarifies that "healthcare facility" has the same meaning as defined elsewhere in state law and lists various licensed medical professionals as "healthcare providers." This measure aims to ensure patients are aware of AI's role in recording their medical appointments and will become effective immediately upon being passed into law.
