Colorado Repealed Its AI Act, Insurers Still Have Obligations
Blog post from Foundational
Colorado Senate Bill 26-189, effective January 1, 2027, repeals and reenacts the state’s earlier AI Act by eliminating mandatory ongoing risk-management programs and annual algorithmic discrimination impact assessments while retaining a disclosure-focused approach for AI-assisted insurance decisions. Insurers and health plans must continue providing general notices about AI use and specific disclosures concerning coverage, underwriting, claims, or financial-assistance eligibility, including disclosures within 30 days of adverse outcomes. Although HIPAA-covered entities and business associates receive exemptions from many developer and deployer obligations, employment-related AI decisions remain subject to the law. The discussion argues that insurers should preserve internal governance and documentation practices because regulators and claimants may still require evidence explaining how automated decisions were reached, particularly as similar insurance AI rules emerge in other jurisdictions. It presents source-code-based data lineage, promoted by Foundational, as a method for tracing a decision to its model inputs, transformations, and data sources.
