On behalf of Hooper, Lundy & Bookman’s Digital Health Practice, here is our most recent HLB Digital Health Update:
THE JOINT COMMISSION AND CHAI RELEASE INITIAL GUIDANCE ON RESPONSIBLE AI USE IN HEALTH CARE
The Joint Commission, in partnership with the Coalition for Health AI (CHAI), has released new guidance to support the responsible adoption of artificial intelligence in health care. The recommendations provide a high-level framework for hospitals and health systems as they navigate AI integration, with a focus on governance, bias assessment, resource evaluation, and risk management.
Building on this work, the Joint Commission and CHAI plan to also develop practical governance playbooks and a voluntary AI certification program for accredited organizations. For providers—particularly those accredited by the Joint Commission—this is a timely opportunity to evaluate their AI strategies and establish or strengthen internal governance structures to assess current and future AI tools.
The Joint Commission’s announcement and guidance are available here.
