    Interoperability, AI, and the Future of Trust in Healthcare | A HIMSS 2025 Conversation with Robert Havasy | On Location Coverage with Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli
    Mar 12 2025
    Artificial intelligence continues to shape the future of healthcare, and this year’s HIMSS Global Conference 2025 reflected both the momentum and the uncertainties surrounding its adoption. In a conversation with Robert Havasy, Senior Director, Connected Health at HIMSS, the discussion focused on how AI, interoperability, and regulatory policy are influencing healthcare delivery, patient engagement, and the broader industry landscape.AI in Healthcare: From Concept to ImplementationGenerative AI has moved beyond the hype stage, embedding itself into real-world applications. Oracle’s announcement of an AI-driven electronic health record (EHR) platform signals a shift in how hospitals and healthcare systems are rethinking data management. However, the conversation is no longer just about the technology itself—it’s about how governments, regulatory bodies, and healthcare institutions will set guardrails to ensure AI’s responsible and effective use.The Role of Policy in Shaping AI’s FutureWhile AI adoption surges, regulatory uncertainty remains a key challenge. The Biden administration had proposed executive orders and regulations to guide AI’s role in healthcare, but with political shifts and differing global regulatory approaches, the direction remains unclear. HIMSS has observed that different regions—the U.S., Europe, and Asia—may take separate paths in AI governance, raising questions about whether a unified best-practice framework will emerge or if multiple regulatory approaches will lead to diverging standards.Interoperability and the Shift Back to CustomizationFor years, healthcare institutions moved away from building their own systems in favor of purchasing standardized EHR solutions from dominant industry players. Now, there’s a return to in-house development, driven by the need for flexibility, adaptability, and deeper AI integration. At the same time, interoperability remains a hurdle, as institutions seek to make AI work across disparate systems while maintaining security and compliance.The Patient’s Role in AI-Driven HealthcareAI’s potential to close the information gap between patients and providers is one of the most promising developments. From personal health monitoring through wearables to AI-powered tools that help individuals interpret medical research and their own health data, the patient’s role in healthcare decision-making is evolving. The ability for AI to synthesize complex medical data and provide insights in real-time is reshaping how people engage with their health, making them more active participants in their care.What’s Next?As HIMSS 2025 highlighted, AI in healthcare is not a distant vision—it’s happening now. The question is no longer whether AI will be a part of healthcare, but rather how it will be implemented, regulated, and integrated into existing frameworks to maximize its benefits while mitigating risks. The conversation with Robert Havasy underscores the critical need for collaboration between healthcare providers, policymakers, and technologists to ensure AI delivers on its promise while keeping patients at the center of the equation.Listen to the full episode for deeper insights into how AI, interoperability, and patient-centered care are shaping the future of healthcare.Guest: Robert Havasy, Senior Director, Connected Health at HIMSS | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rhavasy/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast [@RedefiningCyber] | On ITSPmagazine: https://www.itspmagazine.com/sean-martinMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining Society Podcast & Audio Signals Podcast | On ITSPmagazine: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/marco-ciappelli____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsHITRUST: https://itspm.ag/itsphitweb____________________________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from HIMSS 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/himss-2025-health-technology-and-cybersecurity-event-coverage-las-vegasHIMSS 2024 Cybersecurity Report: https://www.himss.org/resources/himss-healthcare-cybersecurity-survey/____________________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageTo see and hear more Redefining CyberSecurity content on ITSPmagazine, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurity-podcastTo see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

  • AI, Cybersecurity, and the High-Stakes Risks in Healthcare | A HIMSS 2025 Conversation with Lee Kim | On Location Coverage with Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli

    AI, Cybersecurity, and the High-Stakes Risks in Healthcare | A HIMSS 2025 Conversation with Lee Kim | On Location Coverage with Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli
    Mar 3 2025
    The intersection of cybersecurity and healthcare is more critical than ever, as technology continues to shape the way patient care is delivered. At HIMSS 2025 in Las Vegas, we sat down with Lee Kim, Senior Principal of Cybersecurity and Privacy at HIMSS, to discuss the pressing security challenges facing healthcare organizations, the role of artificial intelligence, and the balance between innovation and risk.AI in Healthcare: Promise and PerilArtificial intelligence is rapidly being adopted across the healthcare sector, yet many organizations still lack structured governance around its use. Kim highlights the “wild west” nature of AI adoption, where policies are either non-existent or underdeveloped, creating risks related to privacy, data security, and patient outcomes. While AI-powered diagnostic tools, like those used in radiology, have the potential to improve patient care by identifying critical conditions early, blind trust in AI-generated results presents serious risks. Without proper oversight, reliance on AI could lead to incorrect medical decisions, putting patient safety in jeopardy.Cybersecurity Gaps in Healthcare OrganizationsOne of the biggest concerns in healthcare cybersecurity is the over-reliance on security tools without a clear strategy. Many organizations invest in the latest technology but neglect foundational security practices, such as governance, policy development, and staff training. Kim points out that less than half of cybersecurity budgets are allocated to governance, leading to disorganized security programs.Another persistent challenge is the human factor. Social engineering and phishing attacks remain the top attack vectors, exploiting the inherent culture of healthcare professionals who are trained to help and trust others. Organizations must focus on proactive security measures, such as regular training and simulated attacks, to reduce human error and strengthen defenses.The Financial and Operational RealityBudget constraints continue to be a challenge, particularly for smaller hospitals and community healthcare providers. While larger organizations may have more resources, cybersecurity spending often focuses on acquiring new tools rather than optimizing existing defenses. Kim stresses the importance of a balanced approach—investing in both technology and governance to ensure long-term resilience.Another concern is the increasing dependence on third-party services and cloud-based AI tools. If these services become too expensive or go offline, healthcare organizations may face operational disruptions. The lack of contingency planning, such as backup vendors or alternative systems, leaves many institutions vulnerable to supply chain risks.Building a More Resilient Healthcare Security ModelAs technology continues to drive innovation in healthcare, organizations must adopt a proactive cybersecurity stance. Business impact analyses, vendor risk assessments, and tabletop exercises should be standard practice to prepare for disruptions. Kim also raises the idea of cyber mutual aid—a model similar to emergency medical mutual aid, where healthcare organizations collaborate to support each other in times of crisis.HIMSS 2025 provides a forum for these critical conversations, bringing together global healthcare leaders to share insights, challenges, and solutions. For those interested in diving deeper, the HIMSS Cybersecurity Survey is available online, offering a comprehensive look at the current state of healthcare security.To hear the full discussion on these topics and more, listen to the episode featuring Lee Kim, Sean Martin, and Marco Ciappelli from HIMSS 2025 On Location.Guest: Lee Kim, Senior Principal of Cybersecurity and Privacy at HIMSS | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leekim/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast [@RedefiningCyber] | On ITSPmagazine: https://www.itspmagazine.com/sean-martinMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining Society Podcast & Audio Signals Podcast | On ITSPmagazine: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/marco-ciappelli____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsHITRUST: https://itspm.ag/itsphitweb____________________________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from HIMSS 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/himss-2025-health-technology-and-cybersecurity-event-coverage-las-vegasHIMSS 2024 Cybersecurity Report: https://www.himss.org/resources/himss-healthcare-cybersecurity-survey/____________________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageTo see and hear more Redefining CyberSecurity content on ITSPmagazine, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurity-podcastTo see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/...
