Focusing on outcomes over novelty prevents AI failure in health care

Health care executive Dave Wessinger discusses their article "How to adopt AI in health care responsibly." Dave explains why organizations must move beyond the hype of artificial intelligence to focus on measurable goals like driving growth and improving quality. The conversation highlights specific high-value applications in documentation and patient intake while emphasizing the critical need for a clinician in the loop approach to ensure patient safety. By prioritizing administrative automation over clinical decision-making initially, leaders can build trust and avoid the risks associated with imperfect technology. This episode explores how to shape AI as a practical tool that enhances rather than replaces human judgment. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.
