United States of America: Bill prohibiting AI usage for medical claim denials (HB 2175) was introduced to Arizona House of Representatives

On 28 January 2025, a Bill prohibiting AI usage for medical claim denials (HB 2175) was introduced to the Arizona House of Representatives. The Bill aims to amend Title 20 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, specifically prohibiting the use of artificial intelligence to deny claims or prior authorisations related to medical necessity or other judgment-based decisions. Instead, a certified healthcare provider must individually review such claims. The Bill seeks to ensure medical decisions are not automated but are assessed by qualified professionals.
