SOURCE: STAT HEALTH TECHTITLE: STAT+: New data shows how HHS is implementing Trump AI mandates
The Department of Health and Human Services is rapidly acquiring and integrating artificial intelligence tools, according to recently released data from the agency’s technology office.
The data give a first look into how HHS is implementing directives to aggressively implement AI across the government under President Trump’s revamped federal AI plans. Information in the data release also shed light on how the Trump administration plans to implement new programs with thousands fewer HHS staff than it had a year ago.
Notably, even though memos on how to implement President Trump’s January 2025 executive order on AI promised more transparency on high-impact AI use cases, HHS’ data release does not answer questions about monitoring AI tools to identify adverse impacts, appeal processes, and incorporating feedback from users and the public. Rules from the Trump administration require that such assessments be completed for “high-impact” AI use cases.
