AI Adoption in Healthcare Must Be Led by Clinicians
byRohit Mahajan & Ritu M. Uberoy

The Big Unlock · Dr. Ruchi Garg, Chief Medical Officer, Fairview Park Hospital

In this episode, Dr. Ruchi Garg, Chief Medical Officer at Fairview Park Hospital, shares how frontline clinicians are shaping the responsible adoption of AI in real-world care settings. Dr. Garg highlights how COVID accelerated digital adoption, from telehealth to remote patient monitoring, demonstrating that care can be both accessible and efficient when technology is thoughtfully applied.

Dr. Garg underscores that AI’s true value lies in reducing administrative burden, particularly in areas like documentation and prior authorization, where inefficiencies delay care and strain clinician-patient relationships. She notes that ambient AI is already improving accuracy and saving hours for physicians, with the next wave extending into orders, workflows, and care coordination.

However, she emphasizes that successful adoption depends on clinician involvement, intuitive design, and minimizing workflow friction. While AI may take on more clinical decision-making, questions around trust, liability, and human oversight remain central, making it critical for healthcare leaders to actively shape, not resist, this transformation. Take a listen.

This guest appearance was facilitated through conversations initiated at ViVE.
