State and local governments are under growing pressure to move artificial intelligence (AI) from pilot programs to real-world operations. Legislators want measurable progress, residents expect faster and more responsive services and agencies face ongoing budget and workforce constraints.
H.R. 1 has significantly reshaped the operating environment for health and human services agencies, increasing both oversight and administrative demands across programs like SNAP and Medicaid. The legislation raises the stakes by tightening expectations around payment accuracy — placing SNAP agencies at risk of financial penalties if error rates exceed 6% by 2028 — while also expanding eligibility verification requirements, such as requiring certain Medicaid recipients to undergo recertification twice a year instead of annually.

But AI does not create maturity. Rather, it amplifies what already exists. Without strong content governance, AI introduces new risk rather than new value.
Modern identity solutions are key to service access and program integrity.
In my previous blog, I talked about how government agencies have been experimenting with AI through small pilots and assessments. These initiatives helped build familiarity, test guardrails and determine what works.
