  • Robert Havasy on AI Transformation in Healthcare
    In this episode of AI Today, host Kathleen Walch, Director, AI Engagement and Community, PMI, kicks off the AI in Healthcare mini-series, produced in partnership by PMI and Healthcare Information Systems and Society (HIMSS). This three-part series explores how artificial intelligence is transforming the healthcare ecosystem— from frontline care to back-office operations. Today, Kathleen sits down with Rob Havasy, Senior Director of Informatics Strategy at HIMSS. Tune in to learn how AI is being used across the healthcare sector to:Alleviate workforce shortages through automation, ambient listening, and intelligent documentation toolsAccelerate data analysis and discovery, surfacing patterns and insights in the 95% of healthcare data that typically goes unusedImprove clinical decision-making with AI-powered tools for early detection (like sepsis) and retrospective analysisEnhance administrative efficiency, freeing up valuable time for nurses and physicians through smart supply chain systems and workflow optimizationSupport human-centered care by augmenting—not replacing—clinicians, and enabling empathetic, AI-enabled interactionsRob also discusses the regulatory challenges facing the industry, the importance of principled leadership, and how organizations can move from digitization to true digital reinvention.Whether you're a healthcare leader, project manager, or curious observer, this episode offers practical, hopeful, and forward-looking insights on building AI-enabled healthcare systems with empathy and vision. To learn more about on AI in healthcare, including access through HIMSS membership, please visit: https://bit.ly/3TSpHDZ.Lead both the AI transformation of project management and the project management of AI transformations today with PMI's CPMAI Certification.Start delivering smarter AI projects today with the free introductory course: https://www.pmi.org/shop/us/p-/elearning/free-introduction-to-cognitive-project-management-in-ai-(cpmai)/el185
