ð¤ Medicare's AI Experiment | EFFector 38.20
When we need medical care, we expect decisions about our treatment to be made by our doctors, not a tech company’s algorithm. But in January, the federal government launched a program that uses AI to to evaluate Medicare beneficiaries’ requests for certain procedures.
EFF sued for records on WISeR, seeking badly needed transparency about Medicare’s AI experiment. In our latest EFFector newsletter, we’re talking about what happens when the government outsources treatment approval to private AI companies—without sufficient transparency, testing, or legal limits.
For over 35 years, EFFector has been your guide to understanding the intersection of technology, civil liberties, and the law. This issue covers unconstitutional digital dragnets, a post office surveillance scheme, and what EFF uncovered about Medicare’s AI experiment.
Prefer to listen in? EFFector is now available on all major podcast platforms. This time we’re talking to EFF’s Lena Cohen about WISeR records documenting improper denials, operational chaos, and lengthy delays that have left patients waiting in pain.
