Curate, Don’t Shop: How to Walk Away from ViVE with an AI Strategy That Delivers Outcomes

Author: HealthIMPACT Live February 20, 2026 Duration: 32:58

Join us as Megan Antonelli sits down with Nayan Patel, a former hospital CIO now leading healthcare innovation at Neteera, to unpack what's shaping the digital health landscape heading into VivVE and HIMSS. They explore how the CIO role is evolving from technology manager to "curator of information and outcomes," and why AI governance, cybersecurity, and platform consolidation are dominating the conversation on the conference floor.

Nayan shares insights from Neeera's contactless patient monitoring technology, using radar to track vital signs and ease the burden on nursing staff, and reflects on what meaningful AI adoption actually looks like in clinical settings. The conversation also covers the enduring value of in-person connections, how to maximize your time at industry events, and why some old debates like shadow IT and build vs. buy are making a comeback with fresh perspective.

Plus, Nayan shares his weekly newsletter TGIF , offering bite-sized insights for healthcare leaders on the go.

Each week, Digital Health Talks-Changemakers Focused on Fixing Healthcare brings you straight to the intersection of medicine and innovation. This isn't about abstract theories; it's a grounded conversation with the clinicians, administrators, and technology leaders who are actively redesigning systems. You'll hear their firsthand accounts of implementing tools like telehealth platforms and AI-driven analytics to tackle real-world problems-from expanding access in underserved communities to personalizing patient care. The discussions cut through the hype, focusing on practical applications of cloud infrastructure, 5G, and machine learning that are making a measurable difference today. Produced by HealthIMPACT Live, the podcast digs into the nuanced questions these changemakers face: deciding where limited resources are best invested, how to ethically leverage patient data, and what it truly takes to improve clinical outcomes. If you're curious about the tangible work being done to reshape our healthcare experience, this is a place to listen in on the honest, complex, and hopeful work of building a better system.
