HEAL-AI Act

This bill would create a federal grant program, run by the Health Resources and Services Administration, to train medical students, medical residents, and medical faculty in using artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine. Accredited medical schools and residency programs could apply for competitive grants of up to $100,000 per year, with priority for those serving medically underserved communities. Grant funds could pay for training on topics such as AI-based diagnosis, clinical decision tools, and the ethics of AI, including bias and patient privacy. Grant recipients would have to submit yearly reports and post the educational materials they create online. The bill authorizes $1 million per year for fiscal years 2026 through 2030.
