Legislative Update: House Energy & Commerce Health Subcommittee Holds Hearing on A.I. in Healthcare
With the end of August recess, Members of Congress returned to Washington D.C. this week to tackle government funding and the remaining policy priorities not included in the One Big Beautiful reconciliation Bill (H.R. 1). This includes government oversight of Artificial Intelligence (AI), which was proposed in early drafts of the reconciliation package but removed for compliance concerns. On Sept. 3, the House Energy & Commerce Subcommittee on Health met on for a hearing titled: Examining Opportunities to Advance American Health Care through the Use of Artificial Intelligence Technologies. Key topics of discussion included real-world applications of AI in the healthcare marketplace today; how AI interventions are improving care delivery for patients, providers, and federal taxpayers; and how AI can be leveraged in the future to transform the American healthcare system and better serve patients across the country.
