Why AI and Digital Health Pilots Die Before They Scale | Dr. Sarah Matt, The Borderless Healthcare Revolution
Health systems spend billions on transformation that works in the boardroom and collapses at the clinical unit. Dr. Sarah Matt, a surgeon turned health technology executive, explains why most AI and virtual care initiatives fail at adoption rather than design, and how her Five Pillars of Access give leaders a practical way to evaluate what will actually scale. A direct conversation about trust, financial sustainability, and building care models that stick.

Before the Next Crisis: A Preventioneer's Framework for AI, Trust, and Healthcare Leadership
Healthcare leaders know the pattern. Warning signs appear. Evidence accumulates. Institutions hesitate. And by the time action is taken, the cost, human and financial, is already enormous. Right now, that pattern is playing out across AI deployment, eroding public trust, and simultaneously weakening fragile health systems. In this episode of Digital Health Talks, physician-scientist and biostatistician Dr. Barry R. Davis brings a framework health leaders can actually use. Drawing on decades leading landmark prevention trials and his new book The Preventioneers: Diseases, Disasters, and the Discoveries That Changed Our World (Johns Hopkins University Press, May 2026), Dr. Davis breaks down why evidence alone rarely drives action, what trust has to do with it, and what the leaders who successfully broke the cycle actually did differently. If you are responsible for AI governance, patient trust, or building a prevention-first culture inside your health system, this conversation is for you.

Ebola, AI, and Prevention as the Real Cost Cure with Dr. Ashish Jha
Right now the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda are responding to an Ebola outbreak caused by Bundibugyo virus, a strain with no licensed vaccine and no approved treatment. WHO declared it a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on May 17. Dr. Ashish Jha calls it one of the largest Ebola outbreaks on record and believes it spread largely undetected for two to three months before anyone caught it, with confirmed cases turning up hundreds of miles apart. That detection lag lands squarely on hospital leaders. As Dr. Jha puts it, a two week head start on an outbreak headed for your emergency room is the difference between adjusting staffing and guidance in advance and scrambling after patients arrive. His new company, BioRadar, is building what he describes as the biosurveillance system the country needs, something closer to a National Weather Service for biological threats. Dr. Ashish Jha, former White House COVID-19 Response Coordinator, joins Megan Antonelli to connect early detection to the cost and quality levers health system leaders pull every day. The take-home is simple and underused: prevention is not only good medicine, but it is also one of the strongest cost-control strategies in healthcare. Highlights 🦠 On the outbreak: he expects it to get worse before it gets better, and sees a real risk of a traveler carrying it to a major city in Europe or the US. He points to last year's USAID cuts and the WHO withdrawal as reasons we have fewer eyes on the ground than we used to. 🏥 On AI and ambient documentation: his own primary care doctor uses it. The upside is real, the doctor pays more attention. But everything gets documented, the billing codes climb, and as he says, that is not saving the system money. His fix is to reduce complexity first, then deal with prices. 📋 On prior auth: payers and providers share the same frustration. Switzerland, Germany, and the Netherlands run fully private insurance with standardized billing and shared rules on what needs authorization. He argues there is a deal to be cut, less prior auth and faster payments, and everyone comes out ahead except the administrative layer. 💸 On what is coming: aging demographics and a wave of cell and gene therapies, some priced at three to four million dollars per patient, are about to put enormous pressure on budgets. His advice is to get your house in order now, before the crisis forces indiscriminate cuts. 🔬 On value-based care: once a skeptic, now a believer. He wants longer contracts, more two-sided risk over time, and programs that are physician and clinically led rather than another administrative layer.

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

1 in 3 Women Unscreened: Closing the Cervical Cancer Gap
Despite cervical cancer being nearly 100% preventable through routine screening, almost one in three U.S. women are behind, and the numbers have been moving in the wrong direction for a decade. Kara Egan, CEO and Co-Founder of Teal Health, left a career as a health tech investor to fix one of the most overlooked gaps in women's preventive care. In May 2025, Teal received the only FDA authorization for at-home cervical cancer screening, and just seven months later had scaled to all 50 states. In this conversation, Kara breaks down what it actually takes to redesign a screening process that hasn't meaningfully changed in 80 years, how regulatory alignment and updated clinical guidelines are reshaping the landscape, and what at-home diagnostics signal for the future of preventive care and women's health access broadly.
