The state of Texas has enacted a law regulating EHR data and healthcare AI use in the state.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott signed Senate Bill 1188 into law in June. The legislation requires that EHR data from Texas patients be physically maintained in the U.S.
The law also allows AI for clinical decisions provided that the use of AI is disclosed to the patient, the provider is acting in the scope of their license and the reviews the AI’s output, and the use of the AI is not restricted by federal law.
