5. Artificial Intelligence (AI) Transparency
Nimbus OS™ and the Novamed product use third-party artificial intelligence services to power certain features. We believe in transparent disclosure of the AI services we rely on so that users, providers, and patients can make informed decisions about their data.
5.1 AI Services We Use
Our platform integrates with the following third-party AI service:
- Amazon Web Services (AWS) Bedrock: We use AWS Bedrock, a fully managed service from Amazon Web Services that provides access to foundation models from leading AI companies. AWS Bedrock is used to power AI-assisted features within our platform, including (but not limited to) clinical text summarization, documentation drafting, natural language search, and intelligent workflow assistance.
5.2 How AI Is Used in Our Platform
Information processed through AWS Bedrock may include user-submitted text, platform metadata, and, in certain limited and access-controlled workflows, de-identified or minimum-necessary clinical information. Where PHI is involved, processing occurs within AWS regions and configurations that support HIPAA-eligible workloads, and is governed by a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) between Nimbus Healthcare and AWS.
5.3 AI Data Handling Commitments
- Your data is not used to train foundation models. AWS Bedrock does not use customer inputs or outputs to train the underlying foundation models offered through the service.
- Data is processed in transit and at rest using industry-standard encryption (TLS 1.3 in transit; AES-256 at rest).
- Access to AI features is governed by the same role-based and attribute-based access controls (RBAC/ABAC) that apply throughout Nimbus OS™.
- AI-generated outputs are intended to assist, not replace, the professional judgment of licensed healthcare providers. Clinicians remain responsible for all clinical decisions.
- We log AI feature usage to support quality assurance, security monitoring, and incident response.
