Talking the Walk: Data You Keep, Data You Need, and Data You Don’t with Mike McGuire

Author: Healthcare NOW Radio and Podcast Network - Radio and Podcasts for the Healthcare Industry September 26, 2026 Duration: 26:54
The Data You Keep, the Data You Need, and the Data You Don’t On this episode host Tom Testa is joined by Mike McGuire, SVP of Product Strategy at Mediquant for a deep dive into lifecycle data management. The conversation centers on how healthcare systems need to move beyond simply archiving data to implementing proper governance policies that address retention periods, approval workflows, and the balance between legal obligations and clinical continuity of care. McGuire highlighted the importance of distinguishing between data with clinical, research, and legal value, and addressed how acquisitions present opportunities to establish proper governance structures rather than inheriting unmanaged data assets. The discussion also touched upon the role of AI in data lifecycle management, noting that well-governed data provides better foundation for AI initiatives, and concluded with advice for CIOs to begin with data inventory and pilot programs in the archive system.
