Artificial intelligence is reshaping healthcare, from clinical decision support to administrative automation. As vendors flood the market with AI-enabled tools, medical groups face new challenges: how to responsibly evaluate opportunities, avoid compliance missteps, and prepare for emerging regulation. This session explores the intersection of AI, compliance, and governance in healthcare organizations. Topics include the current regulatory landscape, state-level AI legislation, and evolving federal agency guidance. The speakers will address practical questions for practice leaders: What due diligence is needed before adopting an AI tool? How do you manage risk when AI is used for sensitive functions such as billing, documentation, or patient engagement? What governance structures (committees, policies, and accountability frameworks) should be in place to oversee AI adoption? Michelle Wright, EBG Advisor and former payer executive, will engage Kathleen Premo, EBG Partner and former General Counsel/Chief Legal Officer, and Hemant Gupta, EBG Member of the Firm, to provide operational and legal perspectives. Attendees will leave with a roadmap to balance innovation with compliance, positioning their practices to leverage AI while protecting their organizations.
