How We Build AI Governance for Roscoe Village
We start by understanding your current operations and where you want to adopt AI. For a pediatric practice, this might be patient communication automation, appointment scheduling, intake documentation, and clinical note generation. For a psychology practice, this might be intake assessment support, treatment planning assistance, and patient communication. For other professional services, this might be document automation, client communication, and administrative support.
We then build governance in three layers:
Policy and framework. We develop written policies explaining your AI use cases, how decisions are made, where human oversight is mandatory, and how you handle errors or unexpected outcomes. For a pediatric practice, the policy explicitly states that clinical diagnoses are always made by providers, never by AI. AI assists with differential diagnosis consideration and documentation, but providers make final decisions. For a therapy practice, policy states that treatment recommendations are always made by therapists, but AI assists with initial assessment and documentation. Policies are written so patients, staff, and regulators understand your governance.
Technical controls and security. We assess the AI systems you're using or considering for HIPAA compliance, data security, audit capability, and error detection. We recommend technical controls: encryption, access logs, data retention policies. We verify that tools are used in ways that protect patient privacy and maintain confidentiality.
Compliance documentation and training. We create documentation that demonstrates compliance if you're ever audited. This includes policies, risk assessments, vendor assessments, training records, incident logs. We train your team on the governance framework so everyone understands why policies exist and how to follow them. The documentation should tell a coherent story of thoughtful, deliberate AI adoption.
