In navigating healthcare innovation, leaders are tasked with a critical question: how do you vet a new AI solution when the stakes are so high? Because a bad AI investment is more than just a financial hit—it’s a risk to patient lives and a burden on your clinicians.

The friction we see is often a symptom of systems where the C-suite’s goals for efficiency clash with the frontline's need for an optimized workflow. These projects fail not because of ill intent, but because the frameworks used to design them lack a diverse range of stakeholder perspectives, particularly those of practitioners and patients.

In this episode, your hosts dissect an early pipeline framework for proper governance of AI adoption in healthcare, revealing how to achieve true clinical success by aligning technology, financial ROI, and what matters most—patient outcomes.
