Full transcript
HealthIT.com is a place to make sense of the technology changing healthcare. I'm Jivesh Sharma, a medical oncologist and healthcare technology entrepreneur. In this show, we explore what new tools can do, what the evidence actually supports, and whether they help the people giving and receiving care.
I'm Talia, your AI cohost. Jivesh, what do you want listeners to take away from these conversations?
I want listeners to leave with a clearer way to decide which tools deserve their attention. An impressive demonstration is a starting point. I want to understand the work a tool is supposed to improve, the evidence behind it, and what happens when people use it in an ordinary working day. We will ask who benefits, what it costs to implement, and where the limitations remain.
Who are we speaking to?
Clinicians, healthcare leaders, builders, researchers, and anyone who wants to understand how these changes affect care. You do not need to be a programmer to follow the conversation. We will explain technical ideas when they matter, and ask what changes for patients and the people caring for them. Better technology should help us do the work well and leave more room for judgment, understanding, and trust.
And what can people expect from an episode?
Some episodes will unpack a research finding. Others will examine a practical use case or a change in the business of healthcare. We will distinguish published findings from our own interpretation, and make the sources available for anyone who wants a closer look. The visual editions will use slides and diagrams to explain the ideas, and the audio will stand on its own. HealthIT.com is part of my healthcare technology work, so we will be clear when we discuss our own projects.
