The Business of Telehealth: Legal & Regulatory Framework for Digital Health: Compliance, Policy, and Risk Management in Virtual Care
May 12 at 3 p.m. ET
Hosted by Nathaniel Lacktman, chair of the firm鈥檚 Telemedicine & Digital Health Team and Chairman of ATA鈥檚 Board of Directors, this session will have digital health leaders delve into crucial regulatory challenges impacting the digital health industry and provide valuable insights on navigating potential pitfalls and mitigating consequences. The program is designed for general counsel, compliance officers, risk management leaders, telehealth program directors, direct-to-consumer (DTC) platform executives, and health system leaders navigating legal complexity in digital health. Enhance your legal strategy by joining this session 鈥 your legal team will thank you.
Digital health is scaling faster than the legal and regulatory frameworks designed to govern it. Health systems are deploying virtual care across state lines, integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) into clinical workflows, partnering with DTC platforms, and navigating pharmacy compliance 鈥 all while managing a complex patchwork of federal and state regulations that are evolving in real time. A single misstep in licensure compliance, data privacy, pharmacy law, reimbursement documentation, or malpractice risk can halt innovation, trigger costly enforcement actions, or expose your organization to liability.
The legal landscape is complex and constantly shifting. Pharmacy compounding regulations are under scrutiny. AI liability frameworks remain unclear. State telehealth parity laws vary widely. Corporate practice of medicine restrictions differ by jurisdiction. And federal agencies are issuing new guidance that health systems must interpret and operationalize quickly.
This deep dive cuts through the complexity. Leading health care attorneys, regulatory experts, and industry practitioners delve into the crucial legal challenges impacting digital and virtual care today 鈥 helping you navigate potential pitfalls, understand your exposure, and build strategies to mitigate risk while continuing to scale.

Activating AI Responsibly: Governance, Validation, and Deployment Strategies
AI no longer on the horizon 鈥 it’s already in clinical workflows. Health systems are deploying AI for diagnostic support, clinical documentation, predictive analytics, and patient engagement at unprecedented speed. But moving AI from promising pilots to enterprise-scale deployment requires more than technology: it demands robust governance, rigorous validation, continuous monitoring, and clear accountability frameworks. The stakes are high. Without proper oversight, AI can amplify bias, erode patient trust, and expose organizations to regulatory and legal risk. Yet with the right structures in place, AI can enhance clinical decision-making, reduce administrative burden, and improve outcomes at scale.
This deep dive explores how health systems and solution providers are operationalizing responsible AI as models move from pilots into production. Grounded in the ATA AI Principles, the session examines governance structures, model validation, and post-deployment monitoring, alongside evolving legal, regulatory, and state-level policy considerations, to clarify what it takes to deploy and sustain AI responsibly in real-world clinical and operational settings.

Setting the Guardrails: Where AI Stands Now
Aaron Maguregui, Partner
AI is already deployed across health care 鈥 but responsible implementation requires understanding where we are, what principles guide us, and what legal frameworks are emerging. This session cuts through the hype to establish a foundation for the deep dive. Hear an overview of the ATA AI Principles and why they matter for practical deployment, a snapshot of where health systems are actually using AI today (clinical workflows, operations, workforce support), and the evolving legal and regulatory landscape shaping AI governance. Panelists from ATA, leading health care law firms, and organizations deploying AI at scale provide the context needed to navigate the sessions ahead 鈥 establishing shared language, identifying key risks, and clarifying what “responsible AI” means in practice.
Policy & Legal Reality Check: What Changed 鈥 and What鈥檚 Coming
Aaron Maguregui, Partner
State AI legislation is multiplying fast 鈥 some helpful, some hasty 鈥 and health systems need to know what actually applies to them today versus what’s speculative. This session cuts through the noise to address practical legal and policy realities. Hear updates on state-level AI laws following the “health care ChatGPT moment,” legal interpretation of what compliance actually requires right now, and how health systems are preparing without panicking. Panelists from ATA policy leadership, health care law firms, and organizations navigating AI compliance discuss where legislation is gaining momentum, where it’s premature, and what leaders should prepare for in the next 12-24 months. The focus: actionable guidance, not speculation.
