HB 2748 — AI Is Not A Nurse

GIA® is a clinical decision-support tool operated under clinician supervision. Every screening output carries explicit AI-generation labeling before the clinician reviews and submits.

OCPA — Consumer Privacy

No PII in model training. Opt-out of AI profiling and deletion rights honored at platform level. Security details.

F-Tag 605 — Psychotropic Oversight

Documented clinical basis for every psychotropic decision. Tamper-proof audit trail for CMS surveyors. Structured notes and CPT codes written back to the EHR.

THE OREGON MARKET

1,731 unfilled CNA positions. An aging population growing 59% by 2050.

Oregon has 18,800 vacant healthcare positions statewide and an SNF/LTC RN vacancy rate above 25%. Traditional assessments like the MMSE, MoCA, and PHQ-9 require trained staff and 15–30 minutes per resident. Most facilities cannot sustain that workflow. Meanwhile, the state's 65+ population is projected to grow 59% by 2050, with 79,100 Oregonians already living with Alzheimer's and $344 million in annual Oregon Medicaid Alzheimer's costs.

GIA® by Scienza Health screens for 46 cognitive, behavioral, and neurological conditions in under 5 minutes with zero clinical staff. For CCOs holding total-cost-of-care risk, earlier detection and documented psychotropic oversight translate directly to the global-budget math that defines Oregon's model. 14 governance domains. FDA-registered.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Oregon questions.

How does GIA comply with Oregon's HB 2748 and the Oregon Consumer Privacy Act?

Oregon HB 2748 (signed March 2025) prohibits any nonhuman entity — including AI — from using the title of nurse or representing itself as providing nursing services. GIA® by Scienza Health is positioned accordingly: a clinical decision-support tool operated under clinician supervision, not a nurse analog. The Oregon Consumer Privacy Act grants residents opt-out rights for AI-based profiling and deletion rights for personal data used in AI models. GIA® complies by default — no PII is used in model training, residents retain full OCPA data rights, and screening outputs carry explicit AI-generation labeling before clinician review.

How does GIA fit Oregon's Coordinated Care Organization model?

Oregon is the only state operating fully capitated Medicaid managed care at scale — 16 CCOs hold a single global budget covering physical, behavioral, oral, and addiction services. CCOs are accountable for total cost of care, not episodic billing. GIA® by Scienza Health screens for 46 conditions in under 5 minutes with zero clinical staff and writes structured results directly to the EHR. For CCOs carrying total-cost-of-care risk, that translates to earlier detection, documented psychotropic oversight, and lower preventable utilization — a direct fit with the global-budget economics that make Oregon's model unique.

Which Oregon skilled nursing facilities can deploy GIA?

Any of Oregon's 129 licensed skilled nursing facilities can deploy GIA® by Scienza Health. Deployment takes 2–6 weeks from signed agreement — GIA® arrives pre-installed on Samsung Knox-certified Galaxy devices and integrates with PointClickCare, MatrixCare, Epic, and Cerner through HL7 FHIR and direct API connections. No IT department involvement is required. FDA-registered, HIPAA compliant, OCPA and HB 2748 compliant from day one.

How does AI screening help Oregon SNFs meet F-Tag 605 psychotropic oversight requirements?

F-Tag 605 (which consolidated F-Tag 758 effective 2025-04-28) evaluates whether psychotropic medications are administered for documented clinical need or for staff convenience — a top deficiency category in CMS surveys. With a statewide SNF/LTC RN vacancy rate above 25%, Oregon facilities face acute staffing pressure that can push clinicians toward chemical restraint shortcuts. GIA® screens for 46 cognitive, behavioral, and neurological conditions and generates structured medical notes, CPT codes, and session video for clinician review — giving surveyors a tamper-proof audit trail of the clinical basis for every psychotropic decision.

GIA® by Scienza Health also serves skilled nursing facilities in Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, New York, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, and Washington.
