By Matt Hays, Ph.D., SVP, Research & Analytics for Amplifire Healthcare organizations invest enormous amounts of time and money in training. At the end of most training experiences, learners are asked how much they liked it or whether they believe it will be useful in their day-to-day work. Learners tend to base their responses on how dynamic the trainer was and how rapidly it felt like they were learning the material. When smile scores look good, learners and educators ali

By Myron Wallace, President, ProMobix Every year, health systems spend millions putting smartphones in the hands of nurses, techs, and physicians. And every year, a surprising number of those deployments quietly underdeliver. The devices and networks work, and the apps load, yet care teams still juggle pagers, hunt for colleagues, and toggle between systems that don't talk to each other. The problem is rarely the technology. The problem is that we treat clinical mobility

The Phone Is Not the Project: Why Clinical Mobility Succeeds or Fails at the Point of Care By Myron Wallace, President, ProMobix Every year, health systems spend millions putting smartphones in the hands of nurses, techs, and physicians. And every year, a surprising number of those deployments quietly underdeliver.

AI Can Find the Problem, But Can Your Workflow Act on It? By Chris Talbot, Account Executive, Healthcare Division at SMG3 Healthcare technology is advancing at a remarkable pace. AI can surface risks earlier, predictive analytics can identify patterns hidden in mountains of clinical data, and virtual nursing, mobile tools, and clinical communication platforms are creating new ways to support care teams. Across health systems, leaders are investing in technologies designed t

Walk through any healthcare conference today and you'll hear familiar conversations about artificial intelligence, interoperability, ambient documentation, digital transformation, and the next generation of electronic health records. Every session promises smarter technology, faster workflows, or better data. But beneath all of those conversations, something more fundamental is happening. That observation was reinforced at the recent 2026 Physician-Computer Connection (PCC)

Technology Isn't the Strategy Anymore By Keith Washington Walk through any healthcare conference today and you'll hear familiar conversations about artificial intelligence, interoperability, ambient documentation, digital transformation, and the next generation of electronic health records.

You Can't Automate a Broken Workflow By Keith Washington Healthcare leaders spend a lot of time talking about broken technology. Clinicians complain about documentation burden.

Healthcare organizations across the country continue searching for solutions to burnout, staffing shortages, and workforce instability. Most conversations focus on recruitment: how to bring more people into healthcare and fill vacancies faster. But after more than two decades in nursing, education, and leadership development, I believe the conversation must become bigger than hiring alone. One thing that stood out after my recent podcast conversation was how strongly healthca

Data governance sounds like a technical or operational issue until a clinician is forced to make a decision with incomplete, conflicting, or unclear information. In that moment, the problem is not whether the data exists somewhere in the system. The problem is whether the care team knows which source to trust, what the information actually means, and what action should happen next. That was the focus of a recent Beyond the Blueprint conversation with Dr. John Lee, President o

If you’ve spent any time in healthcare IT, you’ve probably noticed something: we’re not short on ideas, we’re short on alignment. Alignment between strategy and execution. Between clinical teams and IT. Between what gets discussed in boardrooms and what actually works on a Tuesday afternoon in a busy hospital. That gap is exactly why we launched Beyond the Blueprint. The podcast wasn’t designed to be another place to talk about trends. There are plenty of those. Instead, we w
