This session examines how healthcare leaders can move beyond inflated expectations of artificial intelligence and apply it in ways that deliver measurable value to patients, providers, and health systems.

Aneesh will draw on his experience across large healthcare organizations, startups, and technology companies to explain how AI can be aligned with real care delivery needs, operational priorities, and incentive structures. The session will address how first principles thinking can guide AI adoption, reduce complexity, and support sustainable transformation across payer, provider, and digital health environments.
