At its core\, revenue cycle performance directly impacts three outcomes that matter most to executive leadership: stakeholder experience\, net revenue capture\, and operating costs. \nThis Scottsdale Institute RoundTable will explore how leading organizations are operationalizing technology and AI to optimize revenue cycle performance end to end\, from patient access through back-end financial processes. Rather than focusing on individual tools or emerging technologies in isolation\, the discussion will center on revenue cycle as a technology-enabled operating model—one that reduces complexity for patients and clinicians\, improves yield\, and lowers the overall cost base. \nParticipants will examine how enterprise platforms\, analytics\, automation\, and AI can be aligned to revenue cycle workflows to: \n\nImprove patient and clinician experience by simplifying access\, billing\, and communication\nIncrease net revenue capture through better front-end accuracy\, intelligent outreach\, and optimized workflows\nReduce operating costs by addressing staffing constraints\, manual work\, and process variability\nAlign front-\, middle-\, and back-end revenue cycle functions with EHR\, ERP\, and complementary engagement solutions\nMaximize existing technology investments before introducing new solutions\n\nDesigned as an interactive\, peer-driven forum\, this RoundTable will encourage candid dialogue grounded in real-world experience. CFOs\, COOs\, and senior healthcare leaders will gain practical insight into how operationalizing technology and AI can transform revenue cycle from a cost center into a strategic driver of performance\, sustainability\, and stakeholder satisfaction.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]View the report ››[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]The Series \nWith the One Big Beautiful Bill Act\, healthcare leaders are under even more pressure to improve access\, efficiency\, outcomes\, and margins -  while working with stretched teams and increasingly complex technical environments.

Today’s technology leaders are accountable not only for shaping AI strategy and modernizing core IT functions\, but for building the organizational “chassis” that enables AI adoption and drives enterprise-wide change—often beyond what the role has traditionally been equipped to deliver.  Accountable for shaping AI strategy\, enabling new operating models\, and driving measurable clinical and business impact\, leaders are navigating evolving reporting structures and expanding expectations on top of these new responsibilities. Join Chartis partners Samme Diaz and Bret Anderson for a peer-driven discussion alongside Jeff Gautney\, CIO\, Rush University System for Health\, and Chad Jones\, CIO\, Baylor Scott & White Health\, on how the CIO role is evolving\, what’s at stake\, and what it takes to lead in the age of AI. \nLearning Objectives \nBy the end of this roundtable\, participants will be able to: \n\nAssess how the CIO role is evolving toward enterprise transformation leadership and identify the implications for their own scope\, influence\, and organizational positioning.\nEvaluate how AI is reshaping CIO priorities across care delivery and operations\, as leaders respond to capacity and workforce constraints. Apply peer insights to inform strategic priorities and decision making.\nIdentify practical actions to strengthen leadership\, governance\, and C-suite partnerships as AI becomes a critical lever for addressing workforce constraints and driving enterprise transformation.

As these tools are increasingly embedded into healthcare systems\, leaders face the challenge of guiding AI use in ways that align with organizational priorities and support decision-making in critical areas such as medication dosing\, drug interactions\, infection prevention\, and risk assessment. \nThis executive roundtable invites healthcare leaders to engage in an active peer discussion on how AI governance is evolving from policy and oversight into a visible\, operational layer within clinical workflows. The conversation will explore how organizations are incorporating expert-in-the-loop models and fostering AI literacy as essential building blocks for how users engage with these tools. Together\, participants will examine how governance\, transparency\, and content design can shape the role of AI as a support tool\, aligning its outputs with enterprise goals and clinician needs. \nDrawing on real‑world clinician engagement data and executive perspectives\, the discussion will also address how organizations are responding to the use of unsanctioned tools by surfacing authoritative sources at key moments and aligning AI outputs with a unified evidence foundation across the care ecosystem. Attendees will leave with actionable perspectives on how future‑ready healthcare organizations are operationalizing AI governance at the point of care—fostering trust\, accountability\, and collaboration while ensuring AI remains grounded in expert oversight and transparent\, evidence‑aligned content.
