States Restrict Insurers' Use Of AI

State governments and governors across the U.S. are moving to limit health insurers' use of artificial intelligence, with at least four states — Arizona, Maryland, Nebraska and Texas — passing restrictions last year and others considering bills in 2024. The shift clashes with President Trump's December executive order seeking to preempt state regulation, creating a patchwork that insurers say increases compliance burden and raises questions about sufficient human review for prior authorization decisions.
