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.
At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
