HHS releases AI strategy, united by new OneHHS approach
""For too long, our Department has been bogged down by bureaucracy and busy-work; even the most productive public servants are mired in paperwork and process. Across our mission space - from research, to health care delivery, to public health - we've layered administrative red tape on innovators," HHS Deputy Secretary Jim O'Neill wrote in an introductory letter for the strategy. "We will harness AI technologies to streamline operations and enhance support for care delivery throughout the entire health care industry. We call it OneHHS.""
""Within the first pillar, HHS is prioritizing instilling public trust in its AI usage. This will entail developing a new governance structure to oversee AI projects' implementation and incorporating "risk-proportionate controls" to ensure system integrity. AI impact assessments, independent reviews and a well-maintained use case inventory are all included in this effort. The strategy also introduces the "OneHHS" approach as the starring component of the second pillar,""
The Department of Health and Human Services released an agencywide AI strategy to apply artificial intelligence across operations, research, and public health. The strategy centers on five pillars: governance and risk management; infrastructure design for user needs; workforce development and burden reduction; fostering research through gold-standard science; and modernizing public health delivery. The strategy prioritizes public trust via governance structures, risk-proportionate controls, AI impact assessments, independent reviews, and a use case inventory. The OneHHS approach aims to connect subagencies for faster development, testing, deployment, and legally permissible data and knowledge sharing.
