Bulletin 2026-2 – Use of Algorithms, Predictive Models, and Artificial Intelligence in Insurance

BulletinSector

Summary

Sets regulatory expectations for insurers using AI, algorithms, and predictive models in consumer-impacting decisions. Encourages a proportionate written AI systems program covering governance, risk controls, testing, and third-party oversight, and describes examination information requests under existing insurance law.

Healthcare Implications

North Dakota health insurers remain responsible for lawful AI-supported claims and other insurance decisions, including vendor systems. A written AI program is encouraged rather than mandated by this bulletin; investigations may occur whether or not a program exists.
