OMB and Executive Office RE: Federal Data

This paper includes comments from the AAIH on “Identifying Priority Access or Quality Improvements for Federal Data and Models for Artificial Intelligence Research and Development (R&D), and Testing: Request for Information.”

The AAIH is a 501(c4) not-for-profit formed in January 2019 as the global advocacy organization for the advancement and use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare applications. The AAIH is a membership-based organization with over 25 participating entities, who either develop or utilize AI in biomedical R&D, devices and diagnostic systems, and clinical applications. Our membership ranges from large diagnostics and drug developers, to leading-edge start-ups, and includes research and medical institutions, technology providers, etc.

This RFI mentions the need to understand best practices for quality improvement as it relates to AI data access and models for testing in the United States federal government. We echo and comment on this need through our primary constituency of industry and academia member organizations.
