12:00 pm - 1:00 pm ESTThis session maps the rapidly fracturing state regulatory landscape governing AI use in behavioral health practice, equipping attorneys to advise clinicians on which AI functions are legally permitted, which are prohibited, and which occupy genuinely unsettled gray zones. Drawing on enacted statutes in Illinois, Nevada, Colorado, Maine, and other jurisdictions alongside APA and ACA ethical guidance, attendees will learn to identify the permitted-versus-prohibited line across the three dominant regulatory models and apply that framework to common AI tools clinicians are already using. Attorneys will leave with a working taxonomy of permitted administrative AI uses, a clear picture of prohibited clinical AI uses, and a practical compliance advising approach for clients operating in multi-state or unsettled regulatory environments.
Harry J. NelsonAdella Katz 1:10 pm - 2:10 pm ESTThis session equips behavioral health attorneys and clinicians with the consent architecture required to withstand a licensing board complaint or civil lawsuit arising from AI-assisted documentation. Attendees will learn the specific legal elements a consent record must contain under Illinois, Texas, Nevada, New York, and pending California law, why a checkbox or general intake disclosure is legally insufficient, and how to build a standalone, revocable, jurisdiction-aware consent document that reflects current litigation trends. Attorneys leave with a practitioner checklist grounded in the 2025–2026 ambient-scribe litigation wave and APA ethical guidance.
