Hosted by Elliott Wilson, Tech It to the Limit explores the messy, hilarious, occasionally terrifying intersection of healthcare, technology, AI, clinical transformation, and the humans stuck trying to make all of it actually work at scale. This is not a “synergy” podcast. No buzzword smoothies. No pretending every pilot program is “revolutionary.” Instead, expect smart conversations with health system leaders, clinicians, founders, policymakers, technologists, and operators who’ve survived enough go-lives, governance meetings, workflow disasters, and innovation theater to have earned a few opinions. Topics include: AI in healthcare that works… and AI that absolutely should not have made it past the steering committee Virtual care, virtual nursing, and the operational realities behind the hype Smart hospitals, digital transformation, workflow redesign, and governance at enterprise scale Cybersecurity, interoperability, automation, ambient tech, and the eternal struggle against th…","last_synced_at":"2026-06-05T20:18:57.734793+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/tech-it-to-the-limit-6436439"},"episode":{"title":"HLTH-Y Dose Part 1","slug":"hlth-y-dose-part-1","published_at":"2025-12-12T08:09:26+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/tech-it-to-the-limit-6436439/hlth-y-dose-part-1","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/tech-it-to-the-limit-6436439","url":"https://rss.com/podcasts/techittothelimit/2385678","audio_url":"https://content.rss.com/episodes/203510/2385678/techittothelimit/2025_12_12_08_08_29_562fbd17-4e22-4003-816b-1d7f7f05cad8.mp3","summary":"In this special HLTH bonus episode of Tech It to the Limit , hosts Sarah Harper and Elliott Wilson battle post-conference fatigue and full-blown health FOMO by bringing the conference floor straight to your earbuds. While Sarah recovers from a “very real case of health FOMO,” Elliott reports from the trenches after surviving days of buzzwords, badge scanners, and $9 lattes. To shake up the usual format, they press play on two standout booth interviews from HLTH. First, Elliott sits down with Dr. Lynne Nowak of Surescripts for a deep dive into seamless prescribing, touchless prior authorization, interoperability, and price transparency. Dr. Lynne breaks down how automation is shrinking prior auth from a multi-day nightmare into a near-instant, 30-second reality, reducing burnout for clinicians and removing friction for patients who just want their meds on time and at a price they can afford. Then, the episode shifts into venture-building mode with returning guest John Beadle of Aegis Ventures. John unpacks how his consortium model is helping health systems move from “innovation theater” to real innovation delivery by building and scaling AI companies faster than the market average. From ambient AI becoming table stakes to the rise of patient-facing agents, he offers a clear view of where healthcare innovation is headed next.
