    Cognitive Atrophy Is a Leadership Crisis: Mohan Nair on Why Healthcare's AI Obsession Is Costing Us Our Best Thinking

    In this episode of Digital Health Talks, host Megan Antonelli, CEO of Health Impact Live, sits down with Mohan Nair, innovator, author, and former Chief Innovation Officer at Cambia Health Solutions, to explore what it truly means to stay human in an AI-obsessed world. Mohan's newest book, Unreachable: How Not to Lose Your Mind in an AI-Obsessed Era, is already an Amazon bestseller, and the conversation is as timely as it is thought-provoking. In this episode, you'll hear about: Why AI adoption is creating cognitive atrophy and how the concept of "inconvenient learning" means removing friction from work may be costing us our most valuable skills How healthcare leaders should distinguish between AI enablement and AI obsession, and why the physician-patient relationship remains fundamentally unreachable by any machine Mohan's take on the rise of Chief AI Officers and how to find your own AI-unreachable value, the insights and instincts no technology can replicate Mohan Nair, CEO, Emerge Inc Megan Antonelli, Chief Executive Officer, HealthIMPACT Live

  2. Episode 200: Ambient AI's Real Wins, Cybersecurity's Quiet Losses, and Healthcare's Double Standards - What the PITT Season Finale Tells Us about Where We are Today and Where we are Heading

    Episode 200: Ambient AI's Real Wins, Cybersecurity's Quiet Losses, and Healthcare's Double Standards - What the PITT Season Finale Tells Us about Where We are Today and Where we are Heading

    Two hundred episodes. One season finale. Everything in between. If you watched The Pitt this week, you saw something the healthcare industry doesn't usually let the public see. The impossible standards, the double standard, the small wins nobody celebrates, and an entire staff on a roof crying for reasons they can't quite explain. Megan Antonelli and Janae Sharp have spent 200 episodes having the real version of that conversation. For this milestone, they're using The Pitt's Season 2 finale as the mirror and asking what it reflects back at digital health right now. The biggest change nobody saw coming. The win that actually moved the needle. The loss nobody wants to own. And the double standard that's been hiding in plain sight the whole time. No guests. No filter. Just the honest shift report.   Episode 1: View From the Top- What Does Sustainable Innovation look like in a Post Pandemic World Aashima Gupta, Director, Global Health Solutions, Google Rasu Shrestha, MD, EVP, Chief Strategy and Transformation Officer, Atrium Health Chris Waugh, Chief Design and Innovation Officer, Sutter Health  Shahid Shah, CEO Netspective Media (Moderator) Episode 40: Healing - Our Patients, Our Healthcare System, Ourselves Theresa Brown, PhD, BSN, RN Janae Sharp, Founder, The Sharp Index Megan Antonelli,  Chief Executive Officer,  HealthIMPACT Live Episode 56: Burnout Isn’t the Whole Story – And Repair Is About More Than Individual Resilience Wendy Dean, MD  Janae Sharp Episode 78: Navigating the Intersection of Equity and Innovation in AI-driven Healthcare Chris Gibbons, Entrepreneur in Residence, Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg Center Janae Sharp Episode 89: From Process-Centric to Patient-Centric - Mayo Clinic CIO Realizing Seamless Integration, Personalized Care, and Empowered Patient Experiences  Cris Ross was at Mayo Megan Antonelli Episode 137: Beyond the Change Healthcare Breach: Redefining Healthcare Cybersecurity for 2025 Rob Sebaugh, Identity Strategist, Healthcare Solutions Engineering, Sailpoint Megan Antonelli Episode 176: From Pilot to Platform - How Sutter Health is Scaling AI Across 3.5 Million Lives Dr. Ashley Beecy, Chief AI Officer at Sutter Health Megan Antonelli   Hosts: Janae Sharp, Founder, The Sharp Index.  The Sharp Index is a nonprofit dedicated to reducing suicide and burnout and improving physician and clinician mental health.

    Join us for a conversation with someone who has actually done the clinical work. Mario Magsaysay started as a bedside nurse in med-surg oncology before moving into clinical informatics, and now leads IS applications for Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center, where he bridges what clinicians need with what technology can deliver. Fresh from HIMSS 2026, Mario shares what stood out on the show floor, what hallway conversations revealed about where health systems are really struggling, and what he is actively building at his own organization right now. If you are navigating AI, EHR optimization, and operational complexity with limited resources, this one cuts through the noise.

    Five Good Things: From ViVE to HIMSS — What's Worth the Hype (and What's Just Fun)

    Megan Antonelli and Janae Sharp are back with another round of Five Good Things — and this one covers a lot of ground. From standout moments at ViVE to the two-week sprint leading into HIMSS, they're cutting through the noise to spotlight what actually mattered, what surprised them, and what they're most excited to see in Las Vegas. Yes, there's strategy. But there's also a Neil Diamond ukulele parody courtesy of Dr. CT Lin, a The Pitt's Dr. Robby sighting at a Brandi Carlile concert, and serious anticipation for The Wizard of Oz at the Sphere. Because the best conversations in health IT happen in the hallways — and sometimes, down a rabbit hole. Megan Antonelli, Founder & CEO, HealthIMPACT Live Janae Sharp. Founder, The Sharp Index

    Curate, Don’t Shop: How to Walk Away from ViVE with an AI Strategy That Delivers Outcomes

    Join us as Megan Antonelli sits down with Nayan Patel, a former hospital CIO now leading healthcare innovation at Neteera, to unpack what's shaping the digital health landscape heading into VivVE and HIMSS. They explore how the CIO role is evolving from technology manager to "curator of information and outcomes," and why AI governance, cybersecurity, and platform consolidation are dominating the conversation on the conference floor. Nayan shares insights from Neeera's contactless patient monitoring technology, using radar to track vital signs and ease the burden on nursing staff, and reflects on what meaningful AI adoption actually looks like in clinical settings. The conversation also covers the enduring value of in-person connections, how to maximize your time at industry events, and why some old debates like shadow IT and build vs. buy are making a comeback with fresh perspective. Plus, Nayan shares his weekly newsletter TGIF , offering bite-sized insights for healthcare leaders on the go.
