From Clinic to Consumer: How AI Is Reshaping the Entire Health Experience

From Clinic to Consumer: How AI Is Reshaping the Entire Health Experience

Author: HealthIMPACT Live June 16, 2026 Duration: 33:54

Health systems are no longer asking whether to deploy ambient AI. They are asking how to scale it across roles, connect it to revenue cycle, and avoid building another layer of fragmented tools. Kenneth Harper, General Manager of Dragon at Microsoft, joins Megan Antonelli to unpack what separates the organizations actually moving the needle from those stuck in pilot mode, what ambient AI's expansion from physicians to nurses and radiologists has revealed about clinical workflow design, and how CIOs should think about building a coherent clinical AI architecture in 2026.

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.
