SUMMARY:WEBINAR | Inside Trinity Health’s $100M IT Cost Optimization Strategy through Archiving and Decommissioning
DESCRIPTION:[vc_column_text css=””]  \n[/vc_column_text]\n\n[vc_column_text css=””]Mike Prokic\, Chief IT Strategy Officer; and Nick O’Connor\, Chief Technology Officer\, Trinity Health. Healthcare systems are facing unprecedented financial pressure\, from federal reimbursement cuts and labor inflation to the operational drag of decades of M&A–driven application sprawl. In this webinar\, Trinity Health C-suite IT leaders share how they turned application decommissioning into a repeatable\, capital-funded financial strategy that is removing over $100 million in recurring IT operating expenses. \nModerated by Clearsense CEO Jason Rose\, this case-study–driven discussion explores how Trinity Health systematically retired nearly 800 applications across 92 hospitals while preserving clinical and financial access\, accelerating M&A synergies\, and reducing infrastructure and security risk. Attendees will learn how Trinity built an “assembly line” approach to archiving and decommissioning\, structuring the program as CapEx under GAAP\, and why active archiving\, not just system shutdowns\, was critical to success. \nThis webinar provides a practical roadmap for CIOs\, CFOs\, and IT leaders at health systems of any size to unlock financial flexibility without compromising patient care or workforce stability.  Documented by Gartner as the best practice for reducing tech debt\, this is a webinar that will bring meaningful and rapid ROI to your health system.[/vc_column_text]

SUMMARY:WEBINAR | Health AI Policy in 2026: Navigating the Federal-State Divide
DESCRIPTION:Randi Seigel\, Partner and Jared Augenstein\, Senior Managing Director\, Manatt Health. Health AI policy has reached an inflection point in 2026. States have introduced more than 240 bills in the first quarter alone\, focused on guardrails around AI chatbots\, clinical oversight and patient consent\, payor use of AI in utilization management and downcoding\, liability\, and transparency. The federal government is moving in the opposite direction\, with the White House\, Congress\, and agencies advancing a deregulatory\, pro-adoption posture and actively pressuring states to stand down. For health tech leaders\, this divergence creates both opportunity and risk: AI sandboxes and regulatory relief programs in states like Utah and Texas are opening new pathways to market\, while federal initiatives including CMMI’s ACCESS Model\, FDA’s TEMPO Pilot\, ARPA-H’s ADVOCATE program\, and CMS’s new Digital Health Tech Ecosystem are reshaping reimbursement\, regulatory pathways\, and commercial strategy. Join Randi Seigel and Jared Augenstein of Manatt Health for a practical session that cuts through the noise\, surfaces the state and federal actions most likely to affect your product\, go-to-market\, and compliance decisions\, and highlights what to watch through the rest of 2026.

Dr. Patrick Runnels\, drawing on his work Leading with Love: An Evidence-Informed Framework for Leading Health System Transformation\, joins Dr. Apurv Gupta to explore how love can be operationalized as a practical\, evidence-informed approach to driving measurable improvement in health systems. \nGrounded in emerging research and real-world leadership experience at University Hospitals\, this session reframes love not as sentiment\, but as a disciplined leadership stance that strengthens trust\, psychological safety\, and shared purpose—core drivers of safety\, engagement\, and performance. The discussion will connect these principles to concrete management practices\, including leadership behaviors\, team dynamics\, and system design choices that influence how care is delivered every day. \nParticipants will gain insight into how to:\n• Translate values such as compassion and respect into consistent leadership and operational practices\n• Build trust and psychological safety as mechanisms for improving reliability and learning\n• Align cultural intention with governance\, workflows\, and accountability structures\n• Lead transformation in a way that supports both human flourishing and sustained performance \nDesigned for executive and clinical leaders\, this session offers a clear\, evidence-informed pathway to achieving excellence in outcomes while strengthening the human experience at the heart of healthcare.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR | Patient-Specific Dosing vs. Protocolized Care: Clinical Superiority for Glycemic Management in the Age of CMS Reporting
DESCRIPTION:Rona Schechter\, MPH\, RDN\, CDCES\, System Director\, Diabetes Service Line Sharp HealthCare; Gregory Deines\, DO\, Division Chief of Diabetes and Endocrinology\, Corewell Health; and Paul Chidester\, MD\, FACP\, Medical Director for EndoTool\, Glooko. As CMS mandates Hospital Harm reporting in 2026\, standard protocols for glycemic control have become a visible system-level risk. Join Paul Chidester\, MD\, Medical Director of EndoTool\, along with clinical leaders from Sharp HealthCare and Corewell Health\, to discover why EHR-native tools and other insulin dosing protocols often fail the most vulnerable patients. Learn how patient-specific predictive modeling\, accounting for real-time renal function and insulin-on-board\, is the essential strategy for eliminating glycemic harm and securing your hospital’s standing in the new era of quality reporting.
