1. Senior Leader AI Training
We list this as number 1 since it is a foundational element of AI governance to have Senior healthcare organization leaders educated about many aspects, not necessarily technical, of AI governance of best practices for healthcare organization's (Covered Entities and Business Associates under HIPAA) ideas, procurement, development and on-going operations AI, all included as parts of a governance program. McLendon IP has a great deal of experience training leaders and staff on privacy and security and also has incorporated AI into the content. 
Senior leaders from organizations of all sizes, providers, payers, and supporting vendors typically have many questions about the risk and compliance of the AI systems or components they have procured or are planning to, along with natural fears that have been reinforced about AI in general over time.
McLendon IP excels at speaking to non-technical leaders about the realities of these systems in terms they understand and ties the governance and compliance their organizations already perform with the emerging requirements for AI governance and compliance.
2. AI Governance Assessment
In order to control liabilities introduced by various forms of risk, AI systems, components and their related data stores need to be evaluated for the risks introduced by each use case they operate within.
Unlike traditional computer systems, AI systems are based on much different software and hardware tools and their output, or what is being used by your organization from them, is variable and can be changed by human actors or changes in technology, environment, societal influences, etc. This requires differing types of vendor selection, implementation, use and monitoring from the systems you are used to dealing with.
AI Privacy, Security and Cybersecurity being procured, implemented and maintained on an on-going basis all require compliance related activities such as risk analysis, policies, procedures, controls and specific technologies used to assess and monitor an organizations AI privacy and security risk structures, as required by HIPAA and other laws, rules and regulations, including from the states.   
Mclendon IP has an Assessment methodology that assesses organization risk from all AI use and specific AI system, component and data store risks by each system or use care.
3. AI Governance and Compliance Services
Senior leaders often have questions about the risks associated with adopting and using AI systems, components and data. While the AI vendors tout the benefits of their platforms, the risks remain largely undocumented or stuffed into already overly complex user agreements and documentation which is difficult for governance to ascertain.

McLendon IP offers strategic planning and assistance building out your AI governance and compliance programs.
