    Intel Presents: Your patient monitoring fleet has an AI decision to make

    Most health systems aren't asking whether to modernize patient monitoring; they're asking whether the upgrade in front of them is worth it. In this episode, two Intel Healthcare and Life Sciences engineers make the case that the real decision isn't about simply adding AI to a monitor; it's about whether your monitoring infrastructure is built for an AI-native, distributed care model — or whether it's locking you into a siloed architecture that limits your options as care delivery evolves.

    Reimagining healthcare: The HIMSS vision for virtual care (The Future of Virtual Care: Part 1)

    In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare organizations accelerated investments in EHRs, interoperability, and digital health infrastructure. These investments laid the foundation for a more connected healthcare ecosystem where data flows freely, patients can access care more easily with virtual visits, and remote patient monitoring enables earlier intervention and better care management. In the first episode of our “Future of Virtual Care” podcast series, join HIMSS President and CEO Hal Wolf as he discusses how the future of healthcare is expanding beyond the classic brick and mortar model.

    HIMSSCast: Payers and providers gird for an escalating AI prior auth arms race (brought to you by SuperDial)

    As health plans expand their use of artificial intelligence for utilization review, hospitals and health systems are adopting AI tools of their own – for documentation, coding automation, denial prediction and more – in an effort to level the playing field. But in an era of aspiration toward value-based reimbursement and of consumer-focused price transparency efforts, could this arms race be cooled for the good of all? Instead of a battle with leading-edge technologies on both sides, can payers and providers find common ground and instead use AI for the greater good – even, just maybe, for their patients and plan members? We speak with Michelle Mello, professor of health policy at Stanford School of Medicine, about those questions and others.

    HIMSSCast Presents: Healthcare Without Borders 5: New Borders and Horizons

    The borders between countries aren’t the only ones that healthcare data needs to travel across. The same principles behind the European Health Data Space can be applied to supporting people’s physical and mental health in their everyday lives: at school, at work, in community spaces, and in sports clubs. In Episode 5, the final part of “HIMSSCast Presents: Healthcare Without Borders,” HIMSS’ Tom Leary and Health Connect Partners’ Dr. Petra Wilson ask important questions about how data and AI-powered tools can help European citizens actively engage in their health and wellness journeys.

    HIMSSCast Presents: Healthcare Without Borders 4: The Glue of Cross-Border Healthcare

    Regulatory frameworks create a solid foundation, but cross-border healthcare can’t succeed without trust. Patients need to trust that their data is being used responsibly, that their provider is properly qualified, and that any AI tools used are free from bias and error. Join HIMSS’ Tom Leary and Health Connect Partners’ Dr. Petra Wilson in Episode 4 of “HIMSSCast Presents: Healthcare Without Borders” to learn more about the four layers of trust — patients, providers, systems and AI algorithms — and how each can be addressed to ensure confidence in cross-border care experiences.
