What this law does
This act requires any healthcare provider or healthcare facility that employs AI to document an in-person or telehealth visit to notify patients that AI was used for that purpose, and to review the AI-generated documentation for accuracy after the visit. "Healthcare facility" carries the meaning given at section 23-17-2, which reaches a facility whether public or private, so the duty binds a government-run facility as well as a private one.
The act was enacted on as Public Law 2026, chapter 199. Its own text provides that it takes effect upon passage.
