�鶹ֱ�� partner Larry Vernaglia, co-chair of the firm’s Providers of Health Care Area of Focus, and associate Kate Pamperin are speaking at the Massachusetts Bar Association’s 2026 Health Law Conference in the session “Artificial Intelligence, Real Consequences: Healthcare in the Age of Sea Change.”

The presentation will cover the following topics:

1. How AI is fundamentally reshaping health care decision-making. AI is now embedded across clinical diagnostics, operational workflows, payer utilization management, and patient-facing tools like chatbots and mental health apps, and the traditional regulatory paradigm was not designed for these adaptive technologies.
2. How the federal regulatory landscape is fragmented across multiple agencies.
3. State legislatures are aggressively filling the federal gaps, creating a compliance patchwork.

Massachusetts Bar Association’s 2026 Health Law Conference will explore the evolving legal, regulatory and practical challenges facing health care attorneys, providers and organizations. With significant changes occurring across health care regulation, reimbursement, medical autonomy and emerging technology, this year’s conference will provide timely insight into the issues health law practitioners need to understand and be prepared to address.
