Millions of people struggle with behavioral health conditions that remain undiagnosed or undertreated. AI could help find those patients sooner and connect them to more effective care. In this episode of the AI at ViVE series on The Beat, host Sandy Vance talks with Jeremy Kreyling, the SVP of Healthcare Informatics at NeuroFlow, about where artificial intelligence genuinely belongs in behavioral health and where clinical judgment and human connection remain irreplaceable. Jeremy explains how NeuroFlow uses machine learning across claims, EHR, assessment, and engagement data to identify hidden behavioral health risk, and why models built around an organization's own population can provide greater confidence than a one-size-fits-all approach. They also discuss how AI can help reduce the number of patients lost between identification, referral, and effective treatment.

In this episode of Interop Now, host Sandy Vance chats with Dima Goncharov, co-founder & CEO of Metriport, about the evolving healthcare interoperability landscape, health information exchanges, FHIR, QHINs, and the challenge of bringing fragmented clinical data together.

They also explore how AI and large language models answer complex patient questions in real time when the underlying data is trustworthy, accessible, and properly organized.

In this episode, host Sandy Vance sits with Dawud Gordon, Ph.D. Founder & CEO at Twosense.AI, to unpack why passwordless projects in healthcare so often stall out and what it actually takes to get them across the finish line.

Ransomware remains one of the biggest cybersecurity threats facing healthcare, but the threat landscape is changing rapidly. Attackers are becoming more targeted, ransomware-as-a-service is making sophisticated tools more accessible, and artificial intelligence is giving cybercriminals new ways to identify vulnerabilities and craft convincing attacks. In this episode of The Beat's Cybersecurity at ViVE series, Sandy Vance speaks with Dave Bailey, VP of Consulting Solutions & Strategy at Clearwater, about the evolving ransomware threat and what healthcare organizations can do to stay ahead of it. Dave explains why smaller healthcare organizations and specialty practices are increasingly attractive targets, how attackers are using AI to improve social engineering and phishing, and why traditional cybersecurity approaches may not be fast enough for the threats ahead. The conversation also explores why healthcare organizations need to understand their AI risk, establish guardrails, inventory their AI use cases, and prepare defenses that can respond at machine speed. Dave shares practical advice for organizations beginning their AI journey, while emphasizing that cybersecurity can no longer be something organizations assess once a year. It has to become a continuously monitored, evolving process.

Healthcare doesn't need more AI pilots. It needs AI that can prove its value. Healthcare organizations are moving beyond experimenting with individual AI tools and beginning to think about AI as enterprise infrastructure. But scaling AI across an entire health system requires more than adding algorithms. It requires integrated workflows, secure technology infrastructure, clinical validation, data governance, and measurable financial and clinical impact. In this episode of The Beat's AI at ViVE series, Sandy Vance sits down with Dr. David Stoffel, Chief Business Officer at RapidAI, to discuss how healthcare AI is evolving from point solutions into enterprise platforms. David explains how RapidAI expanded from its roots in stroke care to a broader clinical AI platform, why health systems are looking to consolidate dozens of AI pilots, and what it takes to connect imaging insights to action throughout the patient journey. The conversation also explores clinical AI, healthcare IT infrastructure, interoperability, AI governance, clinical validation, reimbursement, and ROI. David shares why the next phase of healthcare AI will be defined not simply by what an algorithm can do, but by whether it can produce measurable improvements in clinical care and financial performance.

Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing healthcare, but successful AI adoption requires much more than choosing the right technology. In this episode of The Beat's AI at ViVE series, Sandy Vance speaks with Dr. Melinda S. Kidder, DHA, MSN, RN, CENP, Chief Nursing Officer, Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and Bill Slovin, Chief Technology Officer at Brandon Systems, about what healthcare organizations need to get right before AI can truly deliver value. Their conversation explores some of the biggest challenges facing healthcare AI adoption, including fragmented data, interoperability, data quality, alert fatigue, clinician buy-in, patient safety, and the importance of understanding the problem before selecting an AI solution. Dr. Kidder and Slovin also dive into how healthcare leaders can evaluate AI and analytics vendors, why frontline clinicians need to be part of technology decisions, and how interoperability can help unlock more effective AI-powered care.
