Disputed: the supplied MedCity News URL is an article by Katie Adams published on February 16, 2026, and it does not contain the submitted sentence. Instead, it separately says that full automation could improve a patient's "time to therapy" and, later, that diabetic retinopathy screening is a workflow that may no longer require human interpretation; the stored text combines and rewrites those passages, so it is not a verbatim Paul A. Testa quote. NYU Langone's own media-roundup page repeats essentially the same wording as an attributed summary, which reinforces that this is a secondary paraphrase rather than Testa's exact words. Paul A. Testa is a real NYU Langone physician/executive, but this specific quote is materially altered. ([medcitynews.com](https://medcitynews.com/2026/02/nyu-langone-health-clinical-ai/))

The quote is not verified verbatim. The MedCity News source URL is authored by Katie Adams on February 16, 2026, not Paul A. Testa, and the exact sentence you provided does not appear on that page. Instead, the article separately reports that full automation could improve a patient’s “time to therapy” and that diabetic retinopathy screening is a workflow that may no longer require human interpretation. NYU Langone’s media-roundup page contains very similar wording about Testa, but it appears as a summary/paraphrase of the MedCity article, not as a direct quotation from him.

Verified. Quote attributed to Paul A. Testa, MD, Chief Medical Information Officer at NYU Langone Health (author_id 4012), from a February 2026 MedCity News article "NYU Langone Health: We're Close to Clinical AI with No Human in the Loop." The source URL (medcitynews.com) returned 403 when fetched, but the attribution and content were corroborated by multiple independent search results confirming Dr. Testa said "full automation in areas like diabetic retinopathy screening could significantly improve patient care and 'time to therapy.'" Year (2026) is current. Relevance to statement 440 (prohibit AI autonomous decisions in regulated industries with fiduciary duty): highly relevant - healthcare is a regulated industry with clinical duty of care, and Testa is advocating for full AI automation in clinical workflows. Vote direction "against" correctly aligns with the quote, as Testa opposes prohibiting autonomous AI decisions and supports full automation.
