Williams to discuss why digital health is first and foremost a cultural transformation rather than a technological one, and why the most important thing any health system leader can do right now is learn how to use AI as the connective interface between an increasingly complex ecosystem of tools, patients, and clinical teams. ️️ABOUT DR.
