McDermott
AI is already transforming clinical and operational workflows, but many health systems are still developing the governance and legal architecture required to scale it responsibly. As federal and state scrutiny intensifies and AI increasingly influences care delivery, margin, and compliance, executive teams are looking to move beyond experimentation toward structured oversight.
McDermott Will & Schulte examines the evolving risk landscape, outlines key regulatory and contracting considerations, and highlights three critical questions leadership teams should ask as they operationalize AI with accountability and confidence.
LeanTaaS
Infusion centers today are balancing rising patient demand, staffing constraints, and increasingly complex therapies — all within fixed space and resources. The result is familiar: uneven patient flow, midday congestion, overtime, and mounting pressure on nurses and pharmacy teams.
In a new white paper from LeanTaaS titled “Orchestrating the Future of Infusion Care: The End-to-End Playbook for Smarter Operations,” the authors share how leading organizations are shifting from reactive scheduling to proactive orchestration. By using predictive analytics, AI-driven staffing, and real-time operational visibility, centers can better align demand with capacity — improving access, reducing wait times, and creating more predictable days for staff.
The paper outlines a practical, step-by-step framework to stabilize daily operations and sustain performance without adding chairs or staff. Read the full white paper here to see how top infusion centers are delivering more care with the resources they already have.
