Plotting an AI Strategy: Who Sits at the Table?
Presented by: HealthLeaders
11:10 - 12:10 PM EST

About the Session:

Healthcare organizations that embrace AI need to first decide who’s in charge. Do they assign this to the CIO, the CTO, or do they create a new manager? And how do they make sure all departments, from IT to nursing to revenue cycle, are included in the conversation?

This panel will discuss how health systems set up that management structure, and how that process evolves as an AI strategy matures. Speakers

Marc d. Paradis, Vice President, Data Strategy, Northwell Holdings
Jason Hill, MD, MMM, MS, Innovation Officer, Ochsner Health
