AI in Health Care Efficiency and Study Act

This bill would require the Secretary of Health and Human Services to study, within 18 months, ways artificial intelligence could be used in health care to handle administrative and clerical work such as scheduling, claims processing, documentation, and prior authorization. The study would also look at using AI to improve patient record-keeping, protect the privacy and security of patient data, and detect or prevent cyberattacks like ransomware and data breaches. The Secretary would seek input from federal agencies, academic institutions, AI developers, health care providers, civil rights experts, and patient privacy experts. Within 6 months after finishing the study, the Secretary would send Congress a report with findings, an assessment of AI tools now in use, research recommendations, and policy options.
