Summary
In late 2025, various organizations began launching artificial intelligence (AI) certification programs to standardize practices in healthcare, reflecting an industry shift towards establishing ethical and technical benchmarks. This development follows the discontinuation of the Coalition for Health AI's proposed nationwide AI assurance labs, highlighting the ongoing regulatory void in health AI. President Trump's executive order aims to create a national framework for AI, though details remain vague, suggesting a preference for voluntary compliance over stringent regulation. The initiatives by the Utilization Review Accreditation Commission and the Consumer Technology Association represent significant steps toward ensuring accountability in AI applications in clinical care.
