He discusses the promise of TEFCA (Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement) in expanding data exchange beyond treatment to support broader care coordination. He also highlights California’s Data Exchange Framework as a model for equitable and inclusive health information sharing across diverse communities.
The conversation explores the real-world applications of generative AI in clinical settings, from ambient documentation to AI-powered inbox agents that reduce administrative burden and help clinicians deliver faster, more personalized care.
