Arizona for clinical AI workflows
Arizona in clinical AI workflows: what compliance requires, who asks for evidence, and the records to keep.
01 / State law
Arizona's AI laws
| Law | Status | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Medical necessity denials: no sole reliance on AI | In force | Requires an insurer's medical director to review each medical-necessity denial individually with independent judgment, not relying solely on recommendations from any other source (which covers automated tools). |
| Election deepfakes | In force | Within 90 days before an election, bars creating and distributing a deceptive and fraudulent deepfake of a candidate on the ballot unless it clearly discloses AI-generated content. |
| Digital impersonation; injunctive relief | In force | Lets people sue to stop publication of a digital impersonation of them and sets requirements for such claims. |
| AI-generated child sexual abuse material | In force | Treats a visual depiction indistinguishable from an actual minor as covered by child sexual exploitation offenses. |
| AI service disclosures | Vetoed | Would have required disclosures and other duties for AI services; vetoed June 19, 2026. |

In a clinical AI workflow
Arizona regulates AI through narrow laws on election deepfakes and digital impersonation, AI-generated child sexual abuse material, and, since July 1, 2026, individual medical-director review of medical-necessity denials (no sole reliance on automated recommendations). In 2026 the governor vetoed a broader AI service disclosure bill (HB 2311) and a bill on state agency AI rules (HB 2592).

Optional evidence · where Planisphere fits
Keep a record anyone can check
When your team meets a duty, Planisphere can seal the event it reports as a receipt.
A disclosure shown, a review signed, a model change approved: the event your system reports.
The event becomes a sealed receipt, dated and attributed to whoever is signed in.
Paste the receipt into Verify. No account or key.
A record supports your compliance evidence process. It is not a legal finding or a certification. Systems that call Planisphere's gate API can also hold or refuse an action before it runs.
