AI Agent as a Service in Medtech - Key Considerations for Commercial Contracts

LinkedIN

Transparency of artificial intelligence (AI) systems in healthcare is quickly becoming a central concern for regulators due to potential impacts on patient safety, healthcare quality, bias mitigation, and public trust. To address these challenges, the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) introduced the Health Data, Technology, and Interoperability: Certification Program Updates, Algorithm Transparency, and Information Sharing (HTI-1) rule, establishing comprehensive transparency requirements for AI-based decision support intervention technology (DSI). Additionally, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has advanced transparency recommendations for AI models in medical product submissions, signaling a broader regulatory alignment toward robust AI accountability standards. This article reviews the impact of these regulatory developments on the use of AI in healthcare and compares the requirements to those applicable under the EU AI Act.Read the <a href="https://lifesciences.mofo.com/topics/ai-transparency-in-healthcare-navigating-a-changing-regulatory-landscape" target="_blank">full blog post</a>.
