Healthcare AI Solutions Day · Winter 2027

Sessions

• ↳ 11:00 ET

  Welcome and opening poll: where is your AI stuck — adoption, ROI, governance or integration?

  Host. Sets a shared baseline for the day and for the post-event recap.

• ↳ 11:10 ET

  Pilot to P&L: what earned a 2027 budget line

  CIO/CDO panel — three health-system practitioners and a moderator. Adoption is plateauing; the question now is which AI moved from pilot budgets into the operating budget, and why back-office use cases often pay back first.

• ↳ 11:45 ET

  Ambient scribing, year two: renew, switch, or re-price?

  Case study — a CMIO paired with a vendor leader, plus a second CMIO's multi-vendor bake-off story. Year-one contracts are coming up for renewal. Hear how CMIOs test vendors head to head, rethink pricing models, and where specialty adoption still lags.

• ↳ 12:20 ET

  Nursing is not a note: ambient AI and the workforce

  CNIO roundtable — three CNIOs and one workforce-AI vendor. Nursing documentation is structured flowsheet data, not free text. Adoption, not technology, is the blocker — and trimming documentation burden comes first.

• ↳ 12:55 ET

  Break · sponsor booths · 1:1 lounge

  Networking. Time for one-to-one conversations with peers and partners.

• ↳ 13:05 ET

  Prior auth & denials: AI vs AI

  Demo-off — three vendors, eight minutes each, on one standard prior-auth/denial scenario, judged by a revenue-cycle leader, a payer leader and a physician advisor. Prior authorization is a top revenue-cycle priority, and both providers and payers are automating it. The open question is where the clinical decision must stay with a human.

• ↳ 13:45 ET

  The front door: AI agents in patient access

  Case study (health system with its vendor) plus two lightning demos. Voice and chat agents in access centers are changing hold times, call abandonment and staffing — learn what it takes to deploy them safely.

• ↳ 14:15 ET

  Imaging AI at enterprise scale: validation before go-live

  Case study — a chief AI officer, an imaging chair and a vendor. How health systems validate imaging AI on their own data before a systemwide rollout, and what changes in turnaround once it is live.

• ↳ 14:40 ET

  Governance clinic: intake, monitoring, contracts

  Roundtable of chief AI officers with live Q&A. New chief AI officer roles are spreading; compare intake, monitoring and contracting playbooks that keep AI accountable.

• ↳ 14:55 ET

  Wrap: poll results and the 2027 buyer's checklist
