When the Bot Breaks the Law: Managing Liability for “Agentic” AI in 2026
As artificial intelligence evolves from a passive support tool into autonomous “agentic” systems capable of executing tasks without real-time human oversight, healthcare organizations are entering a new and largely untested liability landscape. In 2025, the focus was on generative AI assisting healthcare providers and administrators. Heading into 2026, healthcare organizations are increasingly considering how to deploy AI agents to independently schedule care, triage requests, submit claims, and communicate with patients and payors, among other actions.
This session examines how existing legal frameworks may be applied to agentic AI systems that act, decide, and trigger outcomes on their own.
Attendees will gain a clear view of:
- Where liability is likely to attach when an autonomous system makes a mistake
- How regulators may frame accountability
- What governance structures organizations should be implementing now to manage risk before enforcement actions and litigation catch up

HIPAA 2.0” Overhaul: Security Mandates & the NPP Crunch
After several years of pandemic-era flexibility, 2025 brought renewed regulatory volatility for HIPAA-covered entities and business associates. While portions of the Reproductive Health Privacy Rule were largely invalidated by federal courts, other major compliance obligations remain firmly on the table. Most notably, updated Notice of Privacy Practices (NPP) requirements are scheduled to take effect in early 2026, and proposed Security Rule modernization efforts signal a move toward more prescriptive technical safeguards.
This session provides a practical roadmap for navigating HIPAA compliance in 2026.
Learning Objectives:
Attendees will gain a clear view of how to prioritize near-term HIPAA obligations while preparing for potential new HIPAA Security Rule mandates involving multi-factor authentication, encryption, and elimination of “addressable” standards to make all standards mandatory.
