House AI & Emerging Technologies Recap 10.1.24

AI could bring numerous innovations to health insurers and the healthcare industry as a whole. However, this new technology also draws concern. Check out TAHP’s full recap here.

Key takeaways:

• Hospitals, clinicians, insurers, and researchers agree—AI has many helpful uses and should not be stifled. However, safety, transparency, and privacy need to be considered.
• Innovative uses for AI include speeding up claim approvals, automating research, analyzing imaging, easing scheduling, detecting FWA, and flagging potential diagnoses early.
• AI is only as good as the data that trains it. This data can be applicable in one situation but not another. It’s crucial to test model accuracy on a case-by-case basis.
• Legislation may consider risk levels by use case, create protections in addition to HIPAA, construct a Digital Bill of Rights, or contemplate unacceptable use cases.
