Artificial Intelligence

Demetri Giannikopoulos, Rad AI CIO, says policymakers need to understand artificial intelligence applications so they can create guardrails that protect patients without stifling new technology developments.

How leveraging AI can help build a resilient foundation for the future.

Advancing issues such as interoperability and data privacy is a daily mission and a personal passion, says federal lobbyist Brett Meeks of Jeffrey J. Kimbell & Associates.

Citing concerns about patient safety risks, the state's medical licensing board asks the Utah Office of Artificial Intelligence Policy to suspend its automated prescription pilot with health AI developer Doctronic. 

Interoperability is improving, but artificial intelligence is exposing the difference between merely exchanging data and actually making data usable, one consultant said.

As ambient conversations unfold, physicians have access to evidence-based guidance through a new partnership between Abridge and NEJM and JAMA and ease downstream coding burdens, says Abridge Clinical Strategy Director Matt Troup.

A background in managing a medical practice gave Gayle Harrell, a Florida state senator and HIMSS26 Changemaker, insights that she used to craft legislation on HITECH and e-prescribing.

Artificial intelligence is becoming so user-friendly that doctors can code custom clinical workflow tools. But AI-driven vulnerability discovery is fast reshaping cybersecurity imperatives for IT leaders.

Creating a smart hospital is less about getting the latest hardware than creating a seamless longitudinal patient journey that starts before a patient's admission, says Sarah Hatchett, Cleveland Clinic CIO.

Also, the University of Queensland is testing aphasia therapy via telehealth.
