All of us at ASAN are saddened to hear that Diane Coleman, President and CEO of Not Dead Yet, has passed away. Diane fought fiercely for the rights of disabled people and for the principle that our lives have equal value.

Health insurers use artificial intelligence to approve or deny payment for certain medical procedures and treatments. But so far, in most states, these actions are highly unregulated. State regulators must act soon to protect consumers. New report: consumeradvocacyforhealth.org/resource/repor…
