OPENING PANEL: AI 2.0 IN HEALTHCARE
From Pilots to Practice: Implementing AI in Everyday Clinical Workflows
The first wave of AI in healthcare was defined by experimentation and proof-of-concept pilots. Today, we’re entering a new era — AI 2.0 — where the focus is shifting from isolated innovation to sustainable, integrated clinical tools that enhance outcomes, reduce burden, and scale impact. Source practical tips to:
- Transition from pilot projects to enterprise-scale implementation.
- Align AI development with clinical governance, safety, and usability standards.
- Integrate AI tools into EHRs and care pathways to reduce friction and enhance adoption.
- Overcome pilot fatigue, ensure clinical buy-in, and achieve measurable improvements.
Improve patient care by positioning AI 2.0 not as a future vision, but as a practical engine for change today.
