    Jun 5 2026

    Are healthcare organizations overcomplicating cybersecurity and missing the basics? In this episode, Donna and David break down the newest Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report and what it really means for hospitals, clinics, and business associates. Despite all the AI headlines and talk about new threats, most breaches still come down to old-school problems—missed patches, credential abuse, and human mistakes. The fundamentals aren't glamorous, but they're what keep your data safe. If you've ever wondered whether all the new risks really change the game for HIPAA compliance, this episode will help you cut through the noise and focus on what actually matters.

    May 29 2026

    How much should we really trust the systems and people we rely on every day?

As healthcare organizations try to keep up, these aren't just tech problems – they're operational headaches and policy questions that hit close to home.

  • AI Without Governance Is Just Faster Chaos - Ep 561
    May 22 2026

    AI is showing up everywhere these days like ketchup at a backyard cookout — apparently it belongs on absolutely everything. But as this episode points out, tossing AI into healthcare operations without governance is basically just upgrading your chaos to premium speed. Using insights from a massive global digital health study, the conversation explores why leadership, oversight, and workforce engagement still matter far more than simply throwing AI, cloud apps, and a little "digital transformation seasoning" on every problem. From forgotten integrations and mystery AI tools to the hard truth that automating a bad process just gives you faster bad results, this episode delivers equal parts practical strategy, healthcare reality checks, and painfully accurate tech humor.
