AI model risk management
AI model risk management in Healthcare & Life Sciences is now a direct compliance obligation, not a voluntary framework exercise. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration's finalized guidance on AI-enabled medical devices and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights position on algorithmic bias in clinical decision support have put model governance squarely inside regulatory scope. European Medicines Agency expectations for AI transparency in drug development add a third vector that multinational life sciences firms cannot ignore.
