An Act providing for the use of mental health chatbots and artificial intelligence by mental health therapists; imposing duties on the Bureau of Professional and Occupational Affairs; and imposing a penalty.
HB 2100 prohibits mental health chatbot suppliers from selling or sharing Pennsylvania users' personal health data or chat inputs with third parties. It directly affects companies providing AI therapy tools that simulate confidential conversations with users in Pennsylvania. The law requires suppliers to protect user data, with limited exceptions for user consent or sharing with health providers. This creates new data privacy rules for AI mental health tools used by therapists in the state.
