Today’s guest is Brad Kennedy, Senior Director of Business Solutions Strategy at Orlando Health — a not-for-profit healthcare organization headquartered in Florida. With years of experience leading innovation and patient experience programs in hospital systems, Brad joins Emerj Managing Editor Matthew DeMello on the show today to explore how healthcare leaders can turn emerging technologies into measurable improvements for patients and clinical teams. He explains how federal policy has elevated patient experience to a top-level business concern and why small, incremental wins — particularly in AI-driven clinical decision support — are proving the value of innovation on the ground. The conversation also explores the real barriers to adoption in clinical environments, from provider trust and workflow integration to building a compelling business case that secures legal, IT, and leadership buy-in.
