"Artificial intelligence is no longer a futuristic concept—it is actively rewriting the playbook for corporate healthcare and benefits strategy," said J. David Johnson, MBA, CEO of MABGH, who will serve as the event's moderator. "MABGH is thrilled to partner with CTA to demystify these emerging trends. For employers, benefit administrators, and firms supporting these organizations, understanding the intersection of AI efficacy and structural trust is vital to controlling costs and improving care. This webinar marks the first of many initiatives MABGH is launching to champion responsible innovation in Health AI."

The session will feature leading digital health and technology policy experts from CTA, who will outline current tech standards and the legislative initiatives being advanced to foster safe, effective, and responsible health AI deployment.

"Building trust is the single most important hurdle for the widespread adoption of AI in healthcare," said Rene Quashie, JD, Vice President of Digital Health at CTA. "To truly improve outcomes, innovation must be paired with rigorous frameworks that ensure transparency and efficacy. We look forward to sharing how CTA is leading conversations around policy and developing standards that protect consumers while empowering the healthcare ecosystem to innovate confidently."

“Standardization is the cornerstone of accountability in health technology," added Kerri Haresign, SES-CSP, Sr. Director, Technology & Standards at CTA. "As AI use cases expand across clinical operations and patient care, establishing uniform, industry-backed technical standards are vital. By creating clear benchmarks for interoperability, efficacy, and reliability, we can help employers and healthcare systems confidently deploy AI tools that are both effective and inherently trustworthy. ”
