model facts label v2

released in January 2025 to advance HTI-1 compliance

Our team at the Duke Institute for Health Innovation published the first AI product label in healthcare in March 2020 in Nature Digital Medicine. The manuscript describing the ‘Model Facts’ label and the initial example for the Sepsis Watch model are available here. The Health Data, Technology, and Interoperability: Certification Program Updates, Algorithm Transparency, and Information Sharing (HTI-1) Final Rule cited the DIHI Model Facts label multiple times, and we are thrilled to see our work shape federal regulation of AI in healthcare.

An example of Version 2 of the Model Facts label. The most recent iteration of the label was updated to promote compliance with the HTI-1 final rule released in December 2023.

We have updated the original ‘Model Facts’ label to include a few additional fields to account for HTI-1 compliance.  Starting on January 1, 2025, AI products distributed by electronic health records (EHR) vendors must disclose 31 source attributes. The full list of attributes is available on page 2 of this document.

We only ask that you give the DIHI team credit for the use of the Model Facts label and cite the source, which we consider our original manuscript from March 2020.
