Carolyn Bradner Jasik, MD, Verily Health Associate Chief Clinical Officer, kicked off AHIP 2026 this week with a deep dive into a new category of AI-enabled care. Key insights: ➡️ “The technology is actually the easy part.” While AI development is manageable, the challenge is building an ecosystem of partnerships to handle regulation, payment, auditing, and ensuring physician support. ➡️ “You cannot do AI if you don't have clean data, a lot of data, and the right data.” Successful implementation of AI in healthcare is dependent on data quality. ➡️ "Patients just want good, accurate, helpful, empathetic care." Despite the complexity of models and protocols, the primary objective remains focused on the patient. #AHIP2026
