S2E3 - Randi Seigel & Jared Augenstein: Healthcare AI Law

By Manatt’s count, more than 280 bills to regulate AI in healthcare were introduced in 2026, and almost none of the resulting law has been tested in court. Randi Seigel, a partner at Manatt who leads its health care regulatory practice, and Jared Augenstein, a senior managing director at Manatt Health, track every one of them. They join Steve Labkoff and Leon Rozenblit to map where the states are headed, explain why consent and disclosure rules often miss the mark, describe how regulation can penalize companies that tried to do the right thing, and offer practical advice on AI governance for hospitals with one-person committees and academic systems with too many.
