In this episode of QuickHITs , we're joined by Dr. Nirav Shah , Associate Chief Medical Informatics Officer of AI and Innovation at Endeavor Health . With a clinical background in infectious diseases and a career spanning quality, analytics, and digital transformation, Dr. Shah shares how Endeavor is navigating the complex yet urgent task of scaling AI responsibly across a multi-hospital health system. Dr. Shah, Tyler Smith, and Ken Booth discuss what it takes to build trust in emerging technologies from the rapid adoption of ambient documentation to the next wave of agentic AI tools that promise to automate full workflows.
