In this episode of Incumbents and Insurgents, Eric Larsen hosts Warner Thomas (President and CEO, Sutter Health) and Munjal Shah (Co-Founder and CEO, Hippocratic AI) for a conversation on what it takes to move clinical AI from invention to installation. As an Incumbent and an Insurgent building on the same patient-facing terrain, they make the case that healthcare has been designed around clinical scarcity, and that AI now makes a kind of abundance possible for the first time.
