In one paragraph
Pennsylvania's HB 1925 (2025-26), as amended (Printer's No. 3963), would add rules for AI in health care facilities, AI use by insurers and AI use by MA or CHIP managed care plans, with duties for the departments of Health, Insurance and Human Services and penalties. The captured text covers the facilities chapter: patient disclosure and responsible-use rules for AI in clinical decision making. It passed the House 144-59 on September 30, 2026.
Plain-English summary, written with AI assistance. The official text controls.
What it means for business
None yet: the bill is pending. If enacted, facilities using AI in clinical decision making would have to disclose it to patients and meet the responsible-use rules in the text.
Key provisions
- Would require a facility to tell patients in plain language if AI is or will be used in clinical decision making, by posting on its website and informing patients in general consent or other written form (once per episode of care)
- Would require AI-generated personalized communications about a patient's clinical information to carry an AI disclaimer and instructions for reaching a human, unless purely administrative or individually read and reviewed by a human health care provider
- Would require that AI not supersede a human provider's clinical decision making and bar penalizing a provider solely for independent judgment that differs from AI output
- Would require that AI models and training data not discriminate in violation of law, that AI performance be reviewed at least annually, and that AI not use patient data beyond its stated purpose except with patient informed consent or as otherwise authorized by law
- The chapter outline also lists compliance statements, record retention, oversight, third-party vendors, enforcement and penalties and a plan of correction; the captured text ends before those sections and before the insurer and MA/CHIP chapters
- Passed the House 144-59 on September 30, 2026; no Senate action appears in the captured history
