Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., introduced legislation to improve menopausal and mid-life health care for women, featuring AI for better diagnostics.
The Advancing Menopause Care and Mid-Life Women’s Health Act calls for a strengthened public health apparatus for women’s midlife care, including public outreach campaigns, research programs and treatment.
It specifically calls for more government oversight efforts to gauge the safety and efficacy of AI-powered devices for new treatments and diagnostic tools designed for addressing midlife, perimenopause or menopausal symptoms.

“Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., introduced legislation to improve menopausal and mid-life health care for women, featuring AI for better diagnostics.” I always thought that was what Patty needed.
We are already discriminating against men in overall health care spending. Why make it worse?
Medicaid spending...the best example of “forced” spending is overwhelmingly a barbell.
At one end are the elderly. It is expensive to extend their life.. just one more month. This spending is both sexes.
At the other end of the barbell is LIFE STYLE CHOICES. Tobacco, Alcohol, drugs, STD are expensive to the taxpayer. This includes newborns with extremely expensive care who need that care due to the lifestyle choices of their parents.
If I had my way, kids under 18 would be told: No lifestyle choice Medicaid for you. If you smoke, drink that is your freedom. But you don’t have the right to force your bad choice on others.
Starting at age 18 and each year after the age would increase by 1 year where Medicaid is denied to those with bad lifestyle choices.
He’s D catering to women. What’s new, that is where the votes are.
Murray is a clueless idiot, there is no cure.
My “illustrious” senator. An embarrassment to WA state, but she keeps getting reelected. She might have voted for ne one reasonable thing but that was the exception.
Like nobody is working this problem already? I sense the “Grandma in Tennis Shoes” wants to take credit for existing research.
I remember Washington in the pre 1980’s. Awesome. What event started the change? One guess Microsoft, followed by others.
