Accelerating Innovation (AI) for Kids with Cancer Act

This bill would have the President, working with the Secretary of Health and Human Services, appoint a Coordinator of AI Innovation to lead federal efforts to use artificial intelligence and other technologies for diagnosing, treating, curing, and preventing childhood cancer. The Coordinator would sit on the Domestic Policy Council and look for ways to speed up AI work at the Childhood Cancer Data Initiative, such as clinical trial design and data analysis. The Secretary would work on data-sharing standards for patient data used with AI while keeping individuals in control of their health information, and would report to Congress within 180 days. The bill authorizes funding for fiscal years 2027 through 2031, including $100 million per year for the Childhood Cancer Data Initiative work.
