Summary

This bill would change federal quality standards for mammography facilities under the Public Health Service Act. It would allow a machine-learning or artificial intelligence system, in addition to a physician, to interpret mammograms under the standards that currently apply to interpreting physicians. It would also remove the requirement that a written mammography report be signed by the interpreting physician.
