Imposes requirements concerning the use of artificial intelligence in health care. (BDR 40-780)
SB 186 requires Nevada medical facilities and providers using generative artificial intelligence (AI) to create written or verbal communications about a patient’s clinical care to include two specific elements: a clear disclaimer stating the communication was AI-generated, and instructions on how to contact a real provider for assistance. It specifies where disclaimers must appear (e.g., prominently at the start of written messages, throughout chat-based telehealth, or at both ends of audio calls). Communications reviewed and approved by a healthcare provider before sharing with patients are exempt from these requirements. The law applies to all medical facilities and providers covered under Nevada’s existing healthcare regulations, with enforcement through standard disciplinary actions for noncompliance.
