1 That title 38a of the general statutes be amended to prohibit health carriers from using artificial intelligence in the evaluation and determination of patient care to safeguard patient access to testing, medications and procedures.
This is a concept bill consisting of a single operative sentence directing that Title 38a of the Connecticut General Statutes be amended to prohibit health carriers from using artificial intelligence in the evaluation and determination of patient care. The bill does not contain drafted statutory language, definitions, enforcement provisions, or penalties. It serves as a placeholder directing the Committee on Insurance and Real Estate to develop full legislative text.
If enacted in its current form, the prohibition would be categorical — barring health carriers from any use of AI in patient care evaluation and determination, with no exceptions for human-in-the-loop oversight, algorithmic decision support, or clinical decision tools. This is broader than the approach taken by most comparable state bills, which restrict AI to a supplementary role rather than prohibiting it outright.
