In this episode of AI Today, host Kathleen Walch, Director, AI Engagement and Community, PMI, kicks off the AI in Healthcare mini-series, produced in partnership by PMI and Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS). This three-part series explores how artificial intelligence is transforming the healthcare ecosystem— from frontline care to back-office operations. Today, Kathleen sits down with Rob Havasy, Senior Director of Informatics Strategy at HIMSS. Tune in to learn how AI is being used across the healthcare sector to: Alleviate workforce shortages through automation, ambient listening, and intelligent documentation tools Accelerate data analysis and discovery, surfacing patterns and insights in the 95% of healthcare data that typically goes unused Improve clinical decision-making with AI-powered tools for early detection (like sepsis) and retrospective analysis Enhance administrative efficiency, freeing up valuable time for nurses and physicians through smart supply chain systems and workflow optimization Support human-centered care by augmenting—not replacing—clinicians, and enabling empathetic, AI-enabled interactions Rob also discusses the regulatory challenges facing the industry, the importance of principled leadership, and how organizations can move from digitization to true digital reinvention. Whether you're a healthcare leader, project manager, or curious observer, this episode offers practical, hopeful, and forward-looking insights on building AI-enabled healthcare systems with empathy and vision.
