SenateThursday 30 October 2025

Health Legislation Amendment (Miscellaneous Measures No. 1) Bill 2025

Senator ROBERTS (Queensland) (12:59): I'll quote from the explanatory memorandum: The Bill will enable the Chief Executive Medicare to approve the use of a computer program to make appropriate, non-discretionary decisions relating to the registration and claims process. Can I confirm you intend to use AI for that process? If so, what checks are in place to make sure the AI is fit for purpose?
