The U.S. Government is examining the role of AI in health care, where digital advancements promise better diagnosis, resource management, and improved care access.

AI regulation must focus on preventing past mistakes, ensuring new technologies benefit underserved communities, and addressing health worker shortages rather than worsening inequalities.
