In this episode, Dr. Keith Morse, Clinical Associate Professor of Pediatrics & Medical Director of Clinical Informatics – Enterprise AI at Stanford Children's Health, shares real-world applications and future visions for generative AI (GenAI) in pediatric care. The discussion highlights how LLMs are being practically integrated into clinical workflows, reducing clinician burden and enhancing hospital operations. Dr. Morse emphasizes the importance of upskilling the workforce to fully leverage AI's potential. With limited prior exposure to tools like LLMs, clinicians and administrative staff need hands-on training. Stanford has launched initiatives including a PHI-compliant internal chatbot, prompt engineering workshops, and engaging frontline staff in pilot projects to build confidence and competence across roles. Dr. Morse sees immense promise in technologies like ambient listening and agentic AI but stresses the need for cautious adoption. In the absence of comprehensive regulation, healthcare systems must take ownership of AI oversight to ensure safety and mitigate risk. He emphasizes the importance of balancing innovation with responsibility, especially in the sensitive context of pediatric care. Take a listen.

This show is about getting or not getting patient outcomes and getting them in an efficient or not efficient way that is in alignment or not in alignment with the values of clinicians trying to care for their patients in the best way that they can. And I'm beginning this conversation with this preface, lest anyone lose track of the ends which we seek, which are Quadruple Aim–type goals. For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. I'm starting here so that we don't get confused between what is a goal and what is a means to achieve a goal because today we're sort of gonna talk about technology, but we're really not gonna talk about technology. And if we're not gonna talk about technology, then, of course—because go big or go home on this show—we're not gonna talk about the mother of all healthcare technology: EHR systems (electronic health records). Ah, so cryptic, but let's proceed. I want to dig in here because this is really important, actually, to everybody, including (and especially) anyone buying healthcare services such as employers. It's also a level set for anyone involved in or about the purveyance of said healthcare services. Here's my first point. Conversations about technology may be unduly focused on technology, and this includes EHRs. I saw a Tweet recently by Joshua Liu that struck me because it really mirrors my own experience working with clinical teams. Joshua wrote, “Let me show you … why studies evaluating the same tech can have very different outcomes. Why the very same tech implemented with different workflows and people can lead to wildly different results.” See the great (and pretty funny, actually) visual that Joshua Liu made about this, but the point is this: Technology is not a thing unto itself. It is not a magic pill like those gelatin caps that you can buy at toy stores and when you toss them in the bathtub, they expand into surprisingly large foam dinosaurs. I mean, you can buy any given healthcare, digital technology, anything … and what doesn't pop out of the box along with purchase are any sort of “why” for an end user to actually use the thing, or implementation plans, processes, change management, empowered people who are bought in, adequate training, adequate staffing levels, and ongoing communication. So, look … here's the point. Unlike the bass, it's not all about the tech. There are people; there are processes. I say all this to say, it's weird to me; and Spencer Dorn, MD, MPH, MHA, my guest today, said pretty much the same thing. It's weird to me how we evaluate technology, and this includes EHRs and patient portals, which we talk about today, and even AI, which we will talk about in a shorter episode that will air in September. But it is so very, very common to talk about tech like it exists in a vacuum and is an end unto itself. For example, you hear often enough people talking about optimizing the EHR. Maybe instead, the title of the conversation should be “Optimizing the Patient-Doctor Encounter” or “Optimizing Patient Health” or “Optimizing the Ability of Clinicians to Work Together as a Team.” Tech is certainly a vehicle to achieve these goals. But whether said tech is a force of good or bad or something in the middle, or succeeds or fails, isn't inherent in the tech itself. As Dr. Dorn says, there is no intrinsic property of the technology that determines the outcome. It's how we use it, how we implement it, how we put it into daily practice, is really, ultimately, the arbiter of what happens and how it impacts lives. I'd also add, just to be a bull in the china shop, even if the tech itself has some glitches, someone decided to make everyone use it in its current form. So … yeah. Therefore, first takeaway from this show is going to be don't ascribe any given technology a label of good or bad or even neutral. This, by the way, is Kranzberg's First Law of Technology, which, of course, comes up because you know me … I cannot miss any opportunity to nerd out over something like Kranzberg's First Law of Technology. And that wraps up takeaway one: Technology by itself is not good or bad or even neutral. Reference Kranzberg's First Law of Technology. Thank you, Melvin Kranzberg. Second major takeaway is that if you're thinking about the ultimate impact of people and processes that have some technology in their midst, technology such as an EHR system, the ultimate impact will not be a black or white binary. Let's just acknowledge that we as humans love binaries, especially polarized binaries, because it's very tidy. Putting things in clear boxes removes ambiguousness that our lizard brains just do not like. But I'm keeping in mind what Tom X. Lee, MD, said on episode 445 last week. Most things in life, IRL, are somewhere in the gray murky middle. And if we understand that, we can make that middle space productive. Dr. Lee called it the productive middle. Here's how I'd put it: Don't be an edgelord. It's generally not a fact-based place to be, but also, it's not productive. Dr. Spencer Dorn and I discuss all of the above, and he makes some great points and he's very articulate. Here's the three dimensions (lots of nuances). Listen to the show for a ton of nuances, but just top-line: 1. EHR-embedded operations have the capacity to empower clinicians with information and/or overwhelm clinicians with information. Most likely what's going on will be somewhere in the middle of these two poles. 2. Impact, which is so often stated as a binary that is actually not a binary but, again, a continuum. An EHR deployment may extend or diminish human connections between docs and patients and between clinicians working together. 3. Not a binary but a continuum is whether operations with EHRs (or any tech really) make clinicians more effective and efficient or less effective and efficient from a clinician standpoint. Dr. Spencer Dorn, my guest today, is a gastroenterologist practicing in North Carolina. He spends his time doing a few different things. That includes taking care of patients. He also helps lead a large academic practice. And lastly, Dr. Dorn works in healthcare IT and clinical informatics. So, therefore, the perfect guest to talk about this whole topic with today. This is a really interesting conversation, so I hope you listen to it. Also mentioned in this episode are UNC Department of Medicine; Joshua Liu, MD; Tom X.

Before Guidewell DCMG implemented the Prisma AI service from eClinicalWorks, intake on a patient could take two days when the office was busy. Why this long? Guidewell operates in Florida and many patients come from out-of-state and their records are scattered among various HIEs and other healthcare organizations. Obtaining the records, reading them, and entering summaries into Guidewell's own EHR was labor-intensive. Prisma AI and the Sunoh AI Medical Scribe have dramatically altered the patient visit for patient and physician alike. Prisma AI creates a summary of patient records focused on the specialty of the physician: “the good parts,” according to Lalith Samaraweera, Director of Clinical Informatics & Business Intelligence at Guidewell.

Dr. Amanda Logue, Chief Medical Officer for Ochsner Lafayette General, joined Discover Lafayette to discuss Ochsner's new General Surgery Residency Program. Accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), the surgical residency program received nearly 600 applications for three coveted spots. The 5-year surgery program is expected to grow, training a new class of three residents per academic year, wth the inaugural class beginning July 1, 2024. Ochsner is also pursuing accreditation of Internal Medicine, Emergency Medicine, and Transitional Year Programs. On April 16, 2024, Ochsner Lafayette General Medical Center, the region's only Level 2 Trauma Center, celebrated the launch of its new General Surgery Residency Program, which will begin July 1, 2024. Located inside the new, recently constructed tower at Ochsner Lafayette General Medical Center, the completed Graduate Medical Education space will be 17,115 square feet. Phase 1 includes eight resident sleep rooms, a resident lounge, classrooms, rounding rooms and lactation rooms. Phase 2 will house numerous simulation labs and additional classroom space. Ziad Ashkar, MD, will serve as the Designated Institutional Official (DIO), ensuring the program meets the rigorous accreditation standards set by the ACGME. Dr. Dennis Eschete will serve as the Program Director for General Surgery. About 25 surgeons will be rotating, with the core group of teaching physicians being Dr. Willard Mosier, Ochsner Lafayette General's head of trauma, Dr. Jason Breaux, Dr. Michael Horaist and Dr. Racheed “Joe” Ghanami. The new residency program is both a strategic response to the escalating physician shortage and a model for innovative care solutions leading to increased patient access. In a 2024 report, the Association of American Medical Colleges projected that physician demand will grow faster than supply, leading to a projected total shortage of up to 86,000 physicians by 2036. Moreover, Louisiana is projected to rank third nationally for a shortage of physicians by 2030, according to a Human Resources for Health analysis. Speaking of the physician shortage being experience here and nationwide, Dr. Amanda Logue shared that 140,000 patients came through Ochsner University Clinics in 2023. "It's a huge volume, there's a huge need for more physicians." Ochsner Lafayette General's new surgery residency program doesn't replace its ongoing partnership with LSU School of Medicine's at University Hospital & Cinics; it complements it. Dr. Logue stated, "The reality is there's a critical need for more physicians, which is why we started our own program in addition to the existing one. This program also signifies our deep commitment to advancing medical education and addressing the dire need for surgeons in our healthcare system." Importantly, data shows that most physicians practice within 70 miles of where they trained, so Ochsner hopes that Lafayette will be a compelling place for their residents to start their medical careers. The goal of the program is not only to provide top-tier educational opportunities, such as training at the region's only Level 2 Trauma Center, but also to inspire innovation and compassion among the residents. The residents will learn to navigate the complexities of healthcare delivery with a patient-first approach, having the opportunity to take part in cutting-edge research and be at the forefront of developing new surgical techniques. Ochsner Health is Louisiana's top healthcare educator of physicians. Annually Ochsner and its partners educate thousands of healthcare professionals. It currently offers 33 Acreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education programs, training over 330 residents and fellows each year. Dr. Logue is board certified in both Internal Medicine and Clinical Informatics, having completed her undergraduate training at LSU in microbiology,

Show Summary In this podcast episode, Linda Abraham interviews Dr. Kevin Schulman, the director of Stanford's Master of Science and Clinical Informatics Management Program. They discuss the opportunities available at the intersection of medicine, business, and technology, and the problems that you can solve by combining these interests in your career. The program at Stanford combines business courses, technology courses, and ethics to train leaders who can transform healthcare delivery. The program is designed for working professionals and is a one-year, part-time cohort program. Graduates of the program can pursue careers as Chief Medical Information Officers, start their own companies, work in tech or industry, or advance in clinical leadership roles. Finally, the interview concludes with a discussion on the potential risks and benefits of technology in healthcare, and the importance of personalizing healthcare through technology. Show Notes What are the opportunities for you, if you're interested in the intersection of medicine, business, and technology? What problems can you solve if you combine those interests in your career? What education would you require? We're going to find out in this interview with the director of Stanford's Master's program and Clinical Informatics Management. Welcome to the 540th episode of Admissions Straight Talk. Thanks for joining me. Whether you are applying to a niche, innovative graduate program or more traditional one, the challenge at the heart of admissions is showing that you both fit in at your target schools and are a standout in the applicant pool. Accepted's free download, Fitting In and Standing Out: The Paradox at the Heart of Admissions will show you how to do both. Master this paradox and you are well on your way to acceptance.  Dr. Kevin Schulman, director of Stanford's Master of Science and Clinical Informatics Management Program is also Professor of Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine and Professor of Operations Information and Technology at Stanford GSB. He is our guest today, and those are just three of his titles. He has several more, along with over 500 publications. His research focuses on organizational innovation and healthcare, healthcare policy and health economics, which leads us directly to Stanford's Master's in Clinical Informatics management or the MCIM.  Dr. Schulman, welcome to Admissions Straight Talk. [2:00] Oh, thanks so much for having me, Linda. My pleasure. I'm really delighted to be speaking with you. I saw an ad for the program online and it just felt like such a fascinating program that I looked into it and I thought, gee, it'd be great to have you on. So let's start with a couple of really basic questions. I am not a techie and I'm not a healthcare professional. I do have an MBA. What is clinical informatics management? [2:05] That's a great question. As you think about healthcare compared to other services that you receive on a daily basis, we're just lagging so far behind in terms of how we provide digital services to our patients, to consumers, how we do follow-up, how we provide education. So we wanted to build a program to help create leaders that will transform the delivery of healthcare in this country and around the world. To do that, we combine business courses and technology courses and ethics in a year long program for working professionals where we meet every other weekend. So my next question was going to be, can you give us an overview of the MCIM program, and you kind of just did that, but can you go into a little bit more detail about how it is structured and what is actually taught in the program? I mean, again, it just sounds absolutely fascinating to me. [3:06] So at a high level, when I first started a program like this after the HITECH Act in 2009. Oh wow, it was back that far? [3:27] I was at Duke at the time, it wasn't here, but our CIO said, look,

In the ever-evolving landscape of healthcare technology, humility is the compass that guides successful change management. It reminds us that the journey towards seamless adoption of health information technology is a collaborative one, where the wisdom of many outweighs the knowledge of one.  The humility to acknowledge one's limitations fosters an environment where collaboration and learning thrive. In the context of clinical informatics, allyship and teamwork are indispensable. Effective clinical informatics demands a diverse skill set, often spanning healthcare providers, IT specialists, and administrative personnel. Allyship within this multidisciplinary team is essential, and applied clinical informatics can be the linchpin in the transition to value-based care.  Through successful HIT implementation, leaders can illuminate the path to better outcomes, reduced costs, and patient-centered excellence. A new era for Clinical Informatics is upon us and will empower healthcare with data-driven insights, AI capabilities, virtual care at scale, and precision medicine to ensure that quality triumphs over quantity in our pursuit of healthier communities. On the Race to Value this week, we are joined by Brittany Partridge, a national thought leader on health data management and informatics.  Brittany is passionate about implementing technology that impacts clinical workflow in a positive way and increases patients' access to care. Join us for an informative discussion on Clinical Informatics, the importance of allyship to mitigate medical technology risk, the impact of Generative AI and virtual care on health system transformation, and change management best practices to lead your organization to successful healthcare innovation. Episode Bookmarks: 01:30 Introduction to Brittany Partridge, an industry leader in Virtual Care Technical Architecture and Informatics Implementations. 03:00 Recent book collaboration with Ed Marx – “Voices of Innovation:  Fulfilling the Promise of Information Technology in Healthcare” 04:30 The sub-disciplines of Health Informatics (e.g. Nursing, Pharmacy, Public Health, Biomedical, Medical, and Clinical Informatics). 06:00 AMIA: Why Informatics? -  “Informatics is the overarching field of study that pulls all these subdomains into one discipline focused on improving health and healthcare.” 06:30 Applied Clinical Informatics – the frontline of healthcare innovation with direct clinician interaction. 07:00 Early experiences in e-prescribing implementations that led to other care delivery innovations such as virtual care and remote patient monitoring. 08:00 The intersection of Clinical Informatics and VBC (ensuring tech usability to optimize care workflows for clinical quality improvement). 09:00 Best Practice Advisories (BPAs) – pop-up alerts to empower clinicians to make the best informed decisions at the point-of-care. 09:45 Leveraging technology innovations to improve patient access and affordability. 11:30 The importance of shadowing and workflow analysis as a catalyst for innovation. 13:00 How shadowing is incorporated into user validation, user design, and Lean (“Go to the Gemba”) 14:00 Simply asking clinicians to describe a workflow is insufficient in understanding the entire process. 15:00 “Get a robust current state workflow before you implement any innovation project because you need to know what you're going to be replacing.” 15:45 How virtual interactions with providers can complement provider shadowing in an embedded CI model. 16:30 Non-judgement in applied clinical informatics is required to build trust. 17:30 “The most important part of rolling out any technology project is clinician trust.
