Dinsmore Healthcare Partner Dan Zinsmaster shares his thoughts with Bloomberg Law on Utah’s pilot programs that will utilize artificial intelligence to expedite prescription refills.
In January, Utah announced it would partner with AI “doctor” startup Doctronic to automate prescription refills with physician oversight for nearly 200 drugs. The programs are being administered by the state Office of Artificial Intelligence Policy and have added fuel to the debate about AI regulation.
Zinsmaster, who advises healthcare clients on compliance matters, highlighted the potential risks that could come from these types of programs without proper oversight.
