    Why Better Healthcare Starts With Better Data with Abhi Sindhwani, Chief Growth Officer at Particle Health

    Healthcare interoperability only works when patient data is not just accessible, but trustworthy, contextualized, and actionable. In this episode, Abhi Sindhwani, Chief Growth Officer at Particle Health, shares how his own experience coordinating care for his mother after a stroke exposed the painful reality of fragmented records across health systems and state lines. He explains why interoperability is still broken, why simply giving patients access to raw data is not enough, and why healthcare organizations need validated, enriched, and structured information they can actually use. Abhi also discusses how Particle Health helps care teams access longitudinal patient records, receive meaningful alerts, and use AI-generated discharge summaries to reduce friction, improve trust, and help clinicians work at the top of their license. He highlights the importance of portability, the risks of information blocking, and the need to refocus the system around the patient.

    Why Application Decommissioning Is a Financial Lever for Health Systems with Jason Rose, CEO and Board Member of Clearsense

    Application decommissioning only creates lasting value when health systems treat it as a long-term operating discipline rather than a one-time IT cleanup effort. In this episode, Jason Rose, CEO and Board Member of Clearsense, explains why application decommissioning has become one of the most important financial strategies for health systems facing margin pressure, rising costs, and growing demands for innovation. He shares that many organizations are carrying bloated application stacks filled with redundant, legacy, and “zombie” systems created by mergers, EHR rollouts, cloud migrations, and years of technical debt. Jason also discusses how Clearsense and Trinity Health built a programmatic approach to application rationalization that has already removed hundreds of applications and is approaching $100 million in software licensing cost savings. By combining governance, procurement planning, data extraction, curation, and decommissioning into an “assembly line” model, organizations can move faster, reduce risk, and create permanent savings that fund future priorities. Tune in to hear why application rationalization is no longer optional, and how health systems can turn it into a repeatable strategy for cost optimization and operational transformation.

    When Law Meets Lived Experience: Building Ethical Data Systems for Behavioral Health with Helen Oscislawski, Legal Counsel at Attorneys at Oscislawski LLC

    What if the biggest barrier to better behavioral health outcomes isn’t access to data, but how carefully we protect it? In this episode, Helen Oscislawski, a healthcare data privacy and interoperability attorney, explains that behavioral health and substance use data require stricter privacy protections due to their sensitivity and history of misuse, and are governed by laws such as 42 CFR Part 2. She highlights how modern interoperability and AI create new opportunities to share data more precisely, but also introduce greater legal and ethical risks. Updated regulations now allow more flexible data sharing to improve care coordination, while introducing stronger enforcement and penalties for non-compliance. She emphasizes that success depends on “privacy by design,” strong governance, and a deep understanding of consent frameworks to preserve patient trust. Tune in to learn how smarter consent, stronger privacy frameworks, and better governance can unlock safer, more effective data sharing in behavioral health!
