Full overview and dates aheadHide full overview
From Jan. 1, 2027, HF 4188 bars utilization review organizations from making adverse determinations with any form of automated processing alone, without clinician review; under existing law, a same-or-similar-specialty Minnesota-licensed physician must make any clinically based adverse determination. The Minnesota Consumer Data Privacy Act, in force since July 31, 2025, exempts protected health information, not practices, so a practice meeting its thresholds needs consent to process other health data and must let consumers question profiling in health care decisions. HF 3893, which would have barred mental health professionals from using AI for therapy or assessment, died in 2026.
