A multi-artificial intelligence agent architecture triggers high-risk patient advanced care planning to improve clinical workflows and patient experiences, while integrating critical human steps for action.
Healthcare leaders must ensure tech investments are paired with organizational changes that enable new workflows, Hal Wolf said at HIMSS26. He added nurses are likely to play an important role in shaping how digital tools evolve.
Predictive analytics boost AI tools and help patients and clinicians connect. However, HIMSS Chief Scientific Research Officer Anne Snowdon says that, globally, only about 30% of analytics capacity has been realized.
AI exposes chaos when fragmented data and broken workflows become more visible during automation, says Michael Vipond of ServiceNow.
At HIMSS26, Verily Life Sciences announced a partnership with Samsung Electronics to combine Galaxy Watch8 with Verily's precision health platform to further clinical research.
The focused large language model is designed to help provide caregivers and administrators answers to their questions based on their own organizations' data, the vendor's chief data scientist explained at HIMSS26.
Called Novare, it offers ambient note-taking, voice-activated chart search, agentic task helpers, intelligent coding suggestions, automated prior authorization, real-time benefit checks and more.
At HIMSS26, the EHR vendor is unveiling technology that brings conversational AI to the point of care, an AI-powered companion to portals, a denial agent to claims, and more. The COO discusses the tech and the potential benefits.
The EHR vendor's clinical, RCM and patient AI technologies – Art, Penny and Emmie – are delivering faster documentation, earlier diagnoses and fewer denials, the company says, unveiling the results from early clients.
Artificial intelligence is no longer science fiction. And if healthcare can ensure empathy and compassion in patient care and clinical AI, it will also integrate more deeply into nursing practice, says Holly Wei of Texas Tech University.
