Greenberg Traurig collaborates with HCMS on AI compliance and disclosure resources. Related Professionals Capabilities HOUSTON - July 7, 2026 - Global law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP collaborated with the Harris County Medical Society (HCMS) to develop artificial intelligence disclosure resources for its members. The resources are intended to provide practical guidance to physicians on AI-related disclosure and informed consent considerations, supporting physicians as they navigate evolving legal and regulatory requirements under Texas state law and communicate with patients about AI use in care delivery. "It was a privilege to collaborate with HCMS on these resources and support its efforts to help physicians navigate the rapidly evolving legal and regulatory considerations surrounding AI," said Health Care & FDA Practice Shareholder Charles C. Dunham, IV, who developed the resources with Associate Ashley Wollaston. "Our collaboration with HCMS reflects the firm's ongoing commitment to help health care organizations navigate the landscape surrounding AI adoption and use." The initiative follows the launch of HCMS' AI Committee, established to help physicians better understand the opportunities and challenges presented by emerging AI technologies. "Since the state passed two new requirements regarding the use of AI, HCMS has been rapidly developing resources to help physicians consider AI issues in their practices," HCMS President Dr. Louise Bethea said. "With the help of Greenberg Traurig, resources have been created regarding AI Informed Consent, which have been made available to our members for them to consider in their practices." Dunham is a frequent presenter to HCMS members on these topics, including presenting "AI Tools for the Medical Practice: What Physicians Should Consider" at the HCMS Annual Business Expo in October 2025.
