#108 - Healthcare AI 101: A Simple Guide to Gains, Pitfalls, and Staff Success

When AI enters clinical and administrative workflows, benefits and risks arrive together. This practical session, we translate HIPAA and safety expectations into plain English and apply an "AI-assisted, not AI-controlled" model to everyday use cases. You will see where AI delivers real gains, what can go wrong without human review, and the simple guardrails that keep care safe and liability low. We showcase to to require from vendors, how to document human-in-the-loop decisions, how to prevent algorithm-only denials and upcoding, and where to file proof so you are audit-ready. Key Topics:Pick the right AI use cases, set human-in-the-loop checkpoints, and document a one-line reconciliation note in the record.Require transparency and compliance from vendors, including BAAs when PHI is involved, data minimization, and clear audit trails for coding, prior auth, and scribe tools.Close policy gaps, monitor accuracy and drift, and retain evidence for six years to satisfy HIPAA and payer expectations.Resources:Learn more about healthcare compliance systems: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠epicompliance.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Explore healthcare compliance training and weekly webinars: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠epicompliance.com/training-in...⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Originally Recorded: November 11, 2025.
