A bill for an act relating to the licensure of artificial intelligence augmented and autonomous service providers, and including penalties.
This bill creates a new licensing system for companies that use artificial intelligence to provide medical services in Iowa, requiring them to register with a newly formed Board of Autonomous Medical Practice. The legislation defines different types of AI medical tools, from advisory systems that suggest diagnoses to fully autonomous AI that can independently make clinical decisions, and establishes specific roles for oversight including medical directors and designated responsible officials. Key provisions include setting up a board with diverse membership from healthcare professionals, technology experts, and the public, while also defining terms like adverse events and reportable incidents to ensure accountability. The bill does not currently specify the application process or fees but focuses on creating the regulatory framework and board structure needed to oversee these new AI medical services.
