The Big Unlock Podcast · AI If Done Right Can Rehumanize Healthcare – Podcast with Ashis BaradIn this episode, Ashis Barad, Chief Digital Technology Officer at the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS), discusses his journey in rehumanizing healthcare through digital health transformation. A practicing pediatric gastroenterologist, Ashis advocates for tech that genuinely solves problems, viewing himself as a “doctor first, technologist second.”
Ashis stresses on Agentic AI and change management as pivotal elements in healthcare transformation. Healthcare is inherently workflow-centric, not a series of isolated moments. Barad explains Agentic AI as a workflow orchestrator designed to reduce administrative waste, enhance patient experience, and accelerate the adoption of best practices.
Ashis outlines HSS’s strategy to leverage its specialized focus to build a modern data lakehouse architecture and deploy AI-powered solutions through key partnerships. He envisions rehumanizing healthcare by automating backend processes, expanding clinician-patient time, and codifying best practices that can be scaled globally, especially in musculoskeletal care and movement.
