The bill mandates the Secretary of Health and Human Services to establish a grant program aimed at fostering research into the application of generative artificial intelligence within the healthcare sector. This research may explore how AI can enhance practitioners' ability to record comprehensive notes, reduce administrative burdens on clinicians, expedite health insurance claims, and improve customer service efficiency and quality in healthcare. The program seeks to leverage AI to generally improve health care outcomes and operational processes. Priority for these grants will be given to eligible entities that encourage the adoption and deployment of generative AI across the healthcare sector and invest in workforce development for clinicians and administrators. Additionally, preference will be given to research that mitigates burnout in the healthcare workforce, reduces gender, racial, and ethnic disparities in health outcomes, and improves the availability of patient care for medically underserved populations . Eligible entities include institutions of higher education, non-profit organizations, and various government agencies.
