## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Health & Medical Law](https://ailawframework.com/practice/health-and-medical-law.md) |
| Human involvement | Red: Lawyer writes; AI may check, clarify or collect data |
| How AI is used | List the procedure facts the lawyer has marked: the name of the procedure, the clinician, and the risks the lawyer has already written. Do not write the form. |
| What the lawyer must review | You write the form the patient will sign. No informed-consent statute was opened, so the tool adds no element of consent. Model Rule 1.4(b) requires an explanation sufficient for the patient, as client, to decide. 45 CFR § 164.502 limits how protected health information in the form may be used or disclosed. Formal Opinion 512 applies if the procedure description is put into a tool. You decide what the form says. |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: List the procedure facts the lawyer has marked: the name of the procedure, the clinician, and the risks the lawyer has already written. Do not write the form.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Notes

- Do not invent a risk that the lawyer has not written down.
- A consent form is not an advance directive. 42 CFR § 489.102 is a different document.
