Georgia is a one-party consent state for recording calls. A 2026 chatbot bill appears to exclude customer service bots, but we could not read its final text.

This is a guide for clinic owners, not legal advice. Every line points to the law or the regulator's own page, checked on 2026-10-21. Where we could not confirm something, the page says so.
Under the statute below, the consent of one party to the call is enough. Federal law lets a party to a call record it, so the federal rule applies the same way here.
Georgia SB 540 (2026) would require an operator to disclose to a user that they are interacting with an AI companion chatbot, not a natural person. LegiScan lists it as passed on 2026-05-11 with an effective date of 2027-07-01. The committee substitute we read defines an AI companion chatbot to exclude a customer-service chatbot that does not sustain a relationship across multiple interactions and is not designed to elicit emotional attachment. We did not retrieve the enrolled text, so a clinic scheduling agent is probably outside it, but we cannot confirm.
We found no comprehensive consumer privacy law and no consumer health data law in force here. We checked secondary update lists, not the legislature's own search. A state medical records or professional confidentiality statute may also apply and was not searched. HIPAA still binds a covered clinic and its business associate vendor.
Georgia bars using automatic dialing and announcing equipment to advertise or offer goods, services or property for sale, or to conduct polls or solicit information, where consent is not received before the calls, or outside 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., among other conditions. It covers advertising and polling use only. The federal rules on AI-voice calls and texts apply as well.
We found no statement from the Georgia Board of Dentistry on AI agents. The board sits under the Secretary of State and that site was not searched. Our check was a web search, not a search of the board's own site, so this is not proof of absence.
We found no statement from the Georgia Composite Medical Board on AI agents. Its guidance page was not opened. Our check was a web search, not a search of the board's own site, so this is not proof of absence.
The federal rule applies here; nothing specific to this place was found.
The ADA requires a public accommodation to provide effective real-time communication, including text telephones and FCC-approved relay systems. A clinic phone line answered by an AI agent must still work for a relay caller.
Aida opens every call with the recording notice your province or state needs, and says it is the practice's AI agent wherever you want it to. Request a demo with your clinic's rules in mind.
