Overview
This bill aims to address potential bias in artificial intelligence (AI) systems used in healthcare. It requires developers and deployers of AI systems to identify and mitigate risks of biased impacts on patient care and outcomes. The bill also mandates regular audits by independent third parties and reporting to the Department of Public Health, starting in 2030, to ensure compliance with these requirements. It establishes definitions for key terms related to AI and healthcare, and clarifies that compliance does not shield against discrimination claims.
