(The Center Square) – As Tim DeFoor enters the final two years of his second term as Pennsylvania’s Auditor General, he is considering a bid for another office in 2028. “My parents always taught me that public service is a privilege and an opportunity to make your community better. Which is something I still believe in,” DeFoor said in a statement to The Center Square on Tuesday. “I’ve been fortunate to serve Pennsylvania in public office. My entire career has been spent reinforcing the importance of responsible government, fiscal accountability, and common-sense leadership. Pennsylvania needs leaders who are willing to put politics aside, focus on practical solutions, and put the interests of taxpayers first.” “My focus right now is on serving as Auditor General and continuing the work we’ve started,” he continued. “However, I remain committed to finding ways to serve the people of Pennsylvania.” DeFoor is term-limited from running for a third time in his current role. But sources say that he is contemplating a run for state treasurer. DeFoor was first elected to public office in 2015, becoming the Dauphin County controller after having more than 30 years of experience as a special investigator with Pennsylvania’s Office of

A proposed class action against Allegheny Health Network (AHN) puts patient consent practices for AI documentation tools under scrutiny. The complaint alleges that patients were told an AI tool would be used during appointments but were not told that their conversations would be transmitted to Abridge AI or could be retained for the company’s commercial purposes. It further alleges that AHN did not adequately disclose those uses. The case highlights a practical challenge for healthcare organizations adopting ambient AI: disclosure should explain what is recorded, who receives the information, and how it may be used, not simply that an AI tool is involved. The plaintiff alleges that patient encounters contributed to Abridge AI’s proprietary data and asserts claims under Pennsylvania wiretapping law, physician-patient confidentiality, privacy, implied contract, and unjust enrichment. For healthcare organizations and technology providers, this case is a reminder to review the full lifecycle of patient data used in AI documentation: what the tool captures, where data goes, how long it is retained, and whether it may be used to develop or improve products. Review patient-facing notices and consent workflows alongside vendor contracts and internal practices and make sure that any option to decline the tool is clear
