Goodbye DUNS Numbers; Hello ??
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 10.04.16

The FAR Council did not provide a specific alternative to the DUNS number, instead indicating that OMB and Treasury are taking the lead in considering such alternatives – a process that will include input from the private sector about “nonproprietary” options.

NAIC Intensifies AI Regulatory Focus: What Health Insurance Payors Need to Know
The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) is intensifying its oversight of how insurers use AI — and the pace of regulatory activity shows no signs of slowing.

That Model Bulletin has now been adopted in approximately 24 states.
