Healthcare

AI Governance for Health Systems, Providers & Digital Health. Harness AI's potential while protecting patients and your organization from HIPAA violations, FDA enforcement, and patient safety implications.

The Stakes Are Higher in Healthcare

Healthcare AI failures don't just create regulatory exposure—they can harm patients. Consider the implications:

HIPAA Violation

$1.5M - $15M

per incident + OCR investigation

Inaccurate Health Information

Patient Harm

Malpractice exposure, irreversible damage

FDA Warning Letter

Marketing Shutdown

+ remediation costs

Reputation Damage

Irreplaceable

Patient trust is everything

The Reality: A single AI-generated communication containing PHI sent to the wrong patient, or medical advice that's inaccurate, can trigger investigations that consume executive attention for months while damaging the trust you've built over decades.

Critical Use Cases

Patient Communication Automation

Health systems use AI to generate appointment reminders, test result notifications, and care instructions at scale. The risks are significant.

Risks

  • PHI exposure when AI includes diagnostic information inappropriately
  • Health literacy failures when communications use jargon patients don't understand
  • Channel security when sensitive information flows to non-secure platforms
  • Medical accuracy when AI-generated care instructions are incorrect

EthiCompass Protection

Patient communications are evaluated for PHI exposure, health literacy, medical accuracy, and regulatory compliance before they reach patients.

Healthcare Marketing

Digital health platforms and health systems use AI for marketing campaigns—a highly regulated activity.

Risks

  • Unsubstantiated health claims triggering FTC enforcement
  • FDA advertising violations for regulated products and services
  • Discriminatory targeting based on health conditions
  • Privacy violations in remarketing and audience building

EthiCompass Protection

Health claim verification, FDA advertising compliance checking, and privacy protection analysis for marketing activities.

Clinical Documentation Support

AI assistants helping clinicians with documentation create new risk categories.

Risks

  • Hallucinated medical information appearing in clinical notes
  • Inappropriate recommendations that AI inserts into documentation
  • Insurance documentation failures leading to denied claims
  • Legal exposure from AI-generated clinical content

EthiCompass Protection

Clinical accuracy verification, documentation standards compliance, and audit trails for every AI-assisted document.
