Live from ViVE '26, we wrap up our coverage from Las Vegas with a full lineup of health IT and health tech thought leaders on solving some of healthcare’s legacy data challenges with emerging tech. 

Anurag Mehta, CEO and Co-Founder of Omega Healthcare, cuts through the challenges of having too many tools in revenue cycle and not enough clarity on what actually works.

Shawn Fichter, CEO of Legacy Data Access, describes how to reframe the way that we collect more data than ever … and then make clinicians hunt for it.

Elton Tavenner, Chief Technology Officer at Certilytics, shares how to flip the narrative from How to use AI to how to get better answers from data we can trust.

Vik Sheshadri, CTO at Med Tech Solutions, discusses how access in the workflow is still the real issue. 

John Tonthat, Chief Revenue Officer at Cellhub Enterprises, and Wes Rhodes, Strategist & CTO at Freeman Health System, tell the benefits of Hospitals Without Walls, Isolated Recovery Environments, and Strategic Cost Optimization. 

Dan McDonald, Co-Founder and CEO of 86Borders, shares what actually drives meaningful member engagement, especially for vulnerable populations.

Mikhail Golovnya, Senior Advisor Data Scientist at Minitab, offers a much-needed reality check on where we actually are with AI today. 

And to wrap up the episode, we learn what it take operationally to make AI successful on the ground from Solventum's Hari Bala, Chief Technology Officer, Health Information Systems, and Thea Campbell, Global Business Director, Revenue Cycle - Revenue Integrity.
