Care coordination in the dental industry barely exists.
While the medical industry has made progress toward interoperability with several recent initiatives, dentistry continues to lag behind its healthcare counterparts in supporting the principles of “open data,” which allow information to be freely accessed, used, and shared across platforms without restrictive barriers.
Improved data-sharing offers significant benefits for both patients and providers.

The Quiet Cybersecurity Crisis in Outpatient and Post-Acute Care
News headlines tend to focus on big events. Notable examples are the attacks on Change Health and Ascension in 2024. Effects from these events continue to pop up in new cycles. However, the cybersecurity incident at the 30-bed skilled nursing facility or the ransomware attack at the 15-provider urology practice down the street that brought care to a complete halt will not be on the 5 o’clock news anywhere.
Security events like these have the same significant, long-term

Redesigning Mental Health for a Digital Era
As healthcare systems confront rising demand for mental health services, digital therapy has emerged as one of the most scalable — and contentious — solutions. Virtual platforms promise to reduce barriers, streamline operations, and expand access. But leaders across health systems and behavioral health networks are beginning to ask more complex questions: What are the clinical limits of online care? Where are the gaps in regulation, infrastructure, and oversight? And how can digital therapy be

Why 90% of Healthcare AI Projects Fail Without AI-Driven Endpoint Management
Over the last two decades, the rapid surge in mobile and IoT-enabled devices has revolutionized patient care, but also created significant hurdles in managing, securing, and optimizing these devices to support seamless and secure clinician workflows. Healthcare CIOs face the daunting task of balancing accessibility, productivity, and security. In fact, a recent survey reveals that 83% of healthcare leaders are planning to invest in AI within the next three years, but fewer than 10% are investing

How Agentic AI is Reclaiming 40% of Pharmacovigilance Capacity
Pharmaceutical companies are tasked with managing vast volumes of patient data, product information and safety reports. Yet, much of this valuable intelligence remains buried in transcripts, call recordings or unstructured documents. Regulators depend on this information to understand the full story of a drug when identifying potential risks and evaluating the safety and efficacy of treatments.
Modern pharmacovigilance demands more than compliance checklists. Today’s pharmacovigilance

The Future of Pharmacovigilance: How Agentic AI and Automation Are Redefining Drug Safety
For decades, drug safety has depended on one simple but demanding task: turning fragments of information from patients, physicians, and trials into clear signals that protect lives. Today, that responsibility sits at the center of a digital revolution. Artificial intelligence and automation are transforming pharmacovigilance from a manual, reactive discipline into one that is fast, predictive, and globally connected. The change is cultural, reshaping how safety professionals think, collaborate,

How to Run a High-Impact Healthcare Cybersecurity TTX
A well-orchestrated healthcare cybersecurity tabletop exercise (TTX) can greatly benefit any healthcare organization. Unfortunately, some TTXs are chaotic and unproductive. When 25 hospital leaders are tied up in a disorganized TTX for four hours, that’s 100 hours of lost productivity.
Here are some tips for how to conduct successful healthcare TTXs that can dramatically improve your preparedness for cyber crises:
Choose your invitations carefully – I’ve been in tabletop exercises that

A Practical Sleep-Based Framework for Digital Phenotyping in Bipolar Care
Digital phenotyping has held promise in mental healthcare for over a decade, but until recently, few approaches offered both a stable evidence base and a clear path to clinical deployment. That’s starting to change — particularly for bipolar disorder. Recent studies published in Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica and npj Digital Medicine show that variations in sleep-wake timing, total sleep time, and daily activity regularity can signal near‑term mood instability in bipolar disorder, reflecting

The Seamless Scan: Why Interoperability is the New Standard for OB-GYN Ultrasound Reporting in 2026
Increasing patient volumes calls for strengthened streamlined processes like never before.
With vast patient data coming from various platforms, tools and systems, the means of connectivity and pooling this information has become a critical factor to successful patient experiences.Today’s healthcare landscape needs a well blended and meticulously integrated system of patient data across all administrative data portals and platforms.
This is why in modern medical practice,

Setting the Bar: How Global Standards Protect Chiropractic Patients and the Profession
When you walk into a chiropractic physician’s office, you expect safe, competent care — whether you’re in Denver or Dubai. The problem is that in many countries outside the U.S., “chiropractic” can refer to practitioners with widely varying levels of education and training. Without consistent standards and testing, the gains we’ve made in public safety and professional credibility are at risk.
Organizations like the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners (NBCE) play an important role in
