While much of the healthcare industry’s attention is laser-focused on AI, the hospitals and health systems that will succeed with the technology may be the ones quietly doing the foundational work to get their data right. That was a central theme of a recent roundtable hosted by Health Data Management, which featured five members of the Harmony Healthcare IT leadership team: Tom Liddell (CEO), Brian Liddell (President and CFO), Jim Hammer (COO), Amanda Mais (VP of Data Integration), and Erik Johnson (VP of Marketing).
Health Data Management CEO Mitchell Josephson opened the conversation with a football analogy: Championships aren’t won by quarterbacks and receivers alone — they’re won in the trenches, on the frontline, he said. In healthcare, that front line is data. As hospitals and health systems race to apply AI to historic datasets and unlock new clinical and operational intelligence, it’s essential that their data foundation is sound.
The discussion covered the full arc of the health data management challenge — from the complexity locked inside legacy systems to the governance required to turn fragmented data into an institutional asset.
The roundtable offers a unique opportunity to hear directly from leaders who’ve spent years navigating healthcare data management. Watch the full recording below.
