Summary
Healthcare leaders are increasingly acknowledging the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in improving clinical outcomes while facing challenges related to return on investment (ROI) and sustainability. As the HIMSS 2025 conference nears, executives express cautious optimism, emphasizing the need for concrete results from AI deployments rather than merely relying on traditional automation. Key figures like Nasim Eftekhari and Simon Nazarian highlight ongoing hurdles in integrating AI effectively into workflows, urging a careful evaluation of AI's potential and risks, particularly in light of prior experiences with electronic medical records. The importance of governance in managing AI data inputs and outputs is also highlighted as essential for mitigating deployment risks.
