In an Oct. 26 notice, the health system said the artificial intelligence chatbot is not HIPAA-compliant and thus, to be used, tools like it must undergo a “proper security review, contracting, and business associate agreement.”
“[Entering] patient information into an AI system could result in a HIPAA violation,” the warning read. “For example, using ChatGPT to draft a patient letter or using an unapproved AI transcription service requires sharing of (patient health information) with the application. Beware of these types of situations.”
