The HEALTH AI Act directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to establish a federal grant program that funds research on how generative artificial intelligence can improve healthcare delivery. Eligible recipients include universities, nonprofits, and government agencies at federal, state, and local levels. The research may focus on applications such as helping doctors write better patient notes, reducing administrative burden on clinicians, speeding up insurance claims processing, improving customer service, and addressing healthcare disparities in underserved communities. The bill prioritizes grants to organizations that deploy AI across the healthcare sector, invest in workforce training, reduce clinician burnout, and improve care access for disadvantaged populations. The legislation does not specify funding amounts or implementation timelines in the provided text.
