Illinois just became the first US state to regulate AI mental health services this week when Gov. JB Pritzker signed a law banning AI therapy.
The law forbids chatbots from acting as therapists and limits how human mental health professionals can use AI to aid their work. Companies face up to $10,000 in fines if they violate the law, according to Morning Brew.
The move comes as ChatGPT users—particularly younger ones—increasingly turn to the app for what amounts to free therapy. OpenAI recently made updates to its model to encourage users to use ChatGPT in a healthier way.
An acute care inpatient hospital is a health care organization or “anchor hospital” in which a patient is treated for an acute (immediate and severe) episode of illness or the subsequent treatment of injuries related to an accident or trauma, or during recovery from surgery. Specialized personnel using complex and sophisticated technical equipment and materials usually render acute professional care in a hospital setting. Unlike chronic care, acute care is often necessary for only a short time. Measures of acute health care utilization are represented by three separate rates:
Rate of admissions per 1000 patients.
Average length of stay per admission.
Total days of care per 1000 patients.

Psychiatric Hospital
A psychiatric hospital (behavioral health, mental hospital, or asylum) specializes in the treatment of patients with mental illness or drug-related illness or dependencies. Psychiatric wards differ only in that they are a unit of a larger hospital.
Specialty Hospital
A specialty hospital is a type of health care organization that has a limited focus to provide treatment for only certain illnesses such as cardiac care, orthopedic or plastic surgery, elder care, radiology / oncology services, neurological care, or pain management cases. These organizations are often owned by doctors who refer patients to them. In recent years, single-specialty hospitals have emerged in various locations in the United States. Instead of offering a full range of inpatient services, these hospitals focus on providing services relating to a single medical specialty or cluster of specialties.
Long-Term Care Hospital
A long-term care hospital is an entity that provides assistance and patient care for the activities of daily living (ADLs), including reminders and standby help for those with physical, mental, or emotional problems. This includes physical disability or other medical problems for 3 months or more (90 days). The criteria of five ADLs may also be used to determine the need for help with the following: meal preparation, shopping, light housework, money management, and telephoning. Other important considerations include taking medications, doing laundry, and getting around outside.
Rural Hospital
The parameters of a rural hospital are determined based on distance. A rural hospital is defined as a hospital serving a geographic area 10 or more miles from the nexus of a population center of 30,000 or more.
More specifically, a rural hospital means an entity characterized by one of the following:
Type A rural hospital—small and remote, has fewer than 50 beds, and is more than 30 miles from the nearest hospital
Type B rural hospital—small and rural, has fewer than 50 beds, and is 30 miles or less from the nearest hospital
Type C rural hospital—considered rural and has 50 or more beds
