Utah becomes first state to let AI examine patients and prescribe medication

Utah launched a one-year program in which Nolla Health's $4.99-per-month AI app scans a patient's face, scores acne severity and recommends one of eight approved treatments. The first 100 prescriptions will be reviewed by doctors, with human oversight declining in later phases.

• Program runs one year and covers only mild-to-moderate acne
• Nolla Health app costs $4.99 per month and scans the face
• AI picks treatment from a list of eight approved medications
• First 100 prescriptions reviewed by doctors, later oversight drops to 10%
