Eric Fish and Paul Deeringer Author Chambers and Partners’ Digital Healthcare 2026 Guide for California
Eric Fish and Paul Deeringer authored the California chapter of Chambers and Partners’ Digital Healthcare 2026 Global Practice Guide, “AI Is Scrubbing In: Is Your Governance Ready?”
The chapter examines the widening gap between AI adoption and formal governance in health care, noting that while AI is now embedded across clinical and administrative workflows, fewer than half of health care organizations have implemented comprehensive policies to manage its use. Eric and Paul outline what organizations should do now, from building governance councils with real decision-making authority to addressing AI-specific risk in vendor contracts, bias assessment, and clinical oversight.
The authors also address AI governance as a transactional and regulatory issue, covering considerations for health systems taking equity stakes in AI vendors and the growing role of governance maturity in M&A diligence.
