This bill would establish a three-year demonstration project to test automated Medicare claim submission using artificial intelligence technology. The program would require Medicare Administrative Contractors to partner with at least 500 physicians to use an AI-powered platform that automatically creates, submits, and documents Medicare claims based on recorded patient-doctor conversations, while ensuring claims comply with Medicare guidelines. Participating patients would be protected from paying out-of-pocket costs for claims submitted incorrectly or for services not covered by Medicare during the project period. The Secretary of Health and Human Services would need to begin the project within one year and submit a progress report to Congress within the first year, including recommendations on how to expand the program. The bill aims to streamline the Medicare claims process and reduce administrative burden on healthcare providers while protecting patient interests.
