Doctors Not AI Act of 2026

Refreshed 2 h ago

Introduced 2026-09-01Topic: health care

Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would change federal health insurance laws to limit how health plans and insurers use artificial intelligence when reviewing claims. When a plan denies or limits coverage based on medical judgment, such as medical necessity, the decision could not be issued or dictated by an AI system and would have to be made by a licensed health care professional with relevant training. If AI was used, the denial notice would have to say so, describe its role, and name the professional who made the decision, and records of the AI's role would be available to the patient on request. The bill would also treat AI use in utilization review as a treatment limitation under mental health parity rules. The changes would apply to plan years starting at least 12 months after the bill becomes law.
