Most hospital AI pilots don’t fail because the technology underperforms. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗳𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗲𝗰𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗱. When AI is launched without a clear operational constraint, baseline metrics, or accountable ownership, pilots stall and ROI remains unproven. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗮𝘀𝗺 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲. Successful systems take a different approach—deploying AI against specific workflows, measuring impact from day one, and moving deliberately from pilot to production.

Most teams try to fix throughput at the visit. That’s already too late. By the time a patient shows up, the day’s capacity is mostly decided—by scheduling quality, visit prep, authorizations, and whether anyone reduced uncertainty upstream. No-shows, late arrivals, and day-of rework aren’t demand problems. They’re access failures. High-performing systems treat patient access as an operational engine, not a front-desk task. They make upstream work predictable so downstream care can actually flow. Fix upstream execution. Throughput, utilization, and stability follow. #PatientAccess #HealthcareOperations #DigitalHealth #SteerHealth

Everyone keeps talking about staff shortages. However, that’s not the real problem. The real issue?

That’s not a staffing issue. It’s an operating model failure. Automation is no longer a "nice-to-have". It’s how leading systems:  • Eliminate administrative waste without compromising care  • Give clinicians time back by removing after-hours charting and follow-ups  • Improve access, throughput, and patient experience simultaneously 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗔𝗜.

We're proud to have Steer Health as a Stedi Platform Partner. Steer Health’s Agentic AI automates and simplifies critical clinical and administrative workflows – from Digital Front Door engagement and 24/7 patient scheduling to eligibility checks and follow-ups.

Margins in healthcare don’t collapse overnight. They erode quietly.  • Referral delays.  • Authorization bottlenecks.  • Scheduling friction.  • Last-minute cancellations. The result is predictable: Idle OR time. Paid teams waiting. Surgical volume that never happens. And when margins are already thin, these leaks push them to zero. AI orchestration changes the economics by fixing the handoffs that actually matter.  • Referrals move faster.  • Authorizations are handled proactively.  • Pre-op tasks are tracked automatically instead of chased manually. This isn’t about working harder or adding headcount. It’s about running a coordinated system.  • Fewer drop-offs.  • Predictable schedules.  • Higher OR utilization. Margins that finally reflect the care being delivered. #AIInHealthcare #CareOrchestration #WorkflowAutomation #DigitalHealth

As we step into the new year, it’s a time to take stock of what was built and what still needs fixing. We appreciate the clinicians, operators, and partners who challenged assumptions, pushed for better systems, and stayed committed to improving care delivery. Meaningful progress in healthcare is hard, but it’s only possible through sustained collaboration. Wishing you clarity, momentum, and impact in the year ahead. Happy New Year 2026! 🎉 🥂 ✨

Most Functional Medicine clinics are still built around systems that 𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘥 care. That worked when care was episodic. It breaks when care becomes longitudinal. Functional Medicine requires coordination across discovery, intake, labs, protocols, follow-ups, and ongoing engagement. When these steps live in disconnected tools—or depend on staff memory—friction shows up as delays, burnout, and lost continuity. The next generation of clinics is adding a missing layer: 𝗮 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗶𝘀, 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆. Think of it as an operating layer for the clinic. The EHR remains the system of record. This layer becomes the system of action. That shift—not more staff or more software—is what enables Functional Medicine to scale without losing quality. This is the operating model clinics are building with 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵.

By automating patient capture, engagement, scheduling, and clinical documentation, Steer AI enables Functional Medicine clinics to scale care delivery while preserving outcomes, efficiency, and provider time. The result is growth without added overhead—and systems that support care, not just record it. #FunctionalMedicine #AIinHealthcare #HealthcareAI #SteerAI

Clinical documentation is often framed as a workflow inconvenience. In reality, it’s one of the biggest drains on clinician capacity. When providers spend hours inside the EHR—much of it on notes that add little clinical value—care slows down, burnout rises, and capacity quietly erodes. 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗱𝗱𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗼𝗼𝘁. By turning the visit itself into a clean, structured chart in real time, documentation stops spilling into nights and weekends. Notes are standardized, errors drop, and clinicians regain time without changing how they practice. 𝗟𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲. 𝗕𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗽𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿.
