Artisight, in Booth 123 in the AI Pavillion at HIMSS25, is a company that is seeking to transform healthcare via its AI-powered smart hospital platform, which uses computer vision, ambient intelligence and automation to enhance clinical workflows with the aim of improving patient outcomes. The platform includes real-time data capture, predictive analytics and virtual care technologies.
Dr. Stephanie Lahr, chief experience officer at Artisight, will be speaking during two sessions at HIMSS25. On Wednesday March 5 at 11:30 a.m. in the AI Pavilion Theater, Venetian Expo Level 1, she will be hosting a fireside chat with Memorial Healthcare South Florida CIO Jeff Sturman titled “AI in Healthcare: Considerations for successful integration and the importance of governance.”
And on Thursday March 6 at 10:40 a.m. also in the AI Pavilion Theater, Venetian Expo Level 1, she will be speaking in a session called “The Lens of Possibility: Computer Vision in Healthcare.”
We talked with Artisight CEO Andrew Gostine to understand the message he hopes his company can successfully convey at the show, some of the big technologies he’s eyeing, and some tips he has for HIMSS25 attendees.
Q. What is the main message you are trying to get across to the hospital and health system attendees at the show?
A. Technology and artificial intelligence in healthcare must start with the clinician and patient in mind. It should not be seen as a tool that simply adds efficiency – it must fundamentally improve clinician productivity, enhance patient care and create value for all stakeholders, including providers, patients, technologists and administrators.
The healthcare industry is facing ongoing challenges, from workforce shortages to clinician burnout, and technology must serve as an enabler rather than a burden.
Looking ahead, hospitals will undergo a major transformation over the next three to five years. The most forward-thinking health systems are already leveraging AI-driven automation, computer vision and ambient intelligence to enhance clinical workflows and streamline care delivery.
Hospitals of the future will not function the way they do today; instead, they will rely on real-time data capture, predictive analytics and intelligent automation to scale care while improving both the patient and clinician experience. Those who invest in adaptable, enterprise-wide AI systems now will be best positioned to meet the demands of an evolving healthcare landscape.
Q. What are the big technologies dominating HIMSS25?
A. Ambient documentation is one of the most significant advancements in healthcare technology today. AI-powered ambient listening and voice recognition tools are enabling clinicians to focus on patient care instead of administrative tasks, reducing cognitive load and increasing efficiency.
This shift is already making a meaningful impact on workflows and patient outcomes, but it represents just the beginning of a broader transformation. The future of AI in healthcare goes beyond documentation – by incorporating computer vision and other sensing technologies, AI has the potential to replicate the way clinicians observe, listen and assess their environment, creating a more intelligent and responsive healthcare ecosystem.
Additionally, the healthcare industry is becoming increasingly reliant on high-performance computing at the edge. The growing adoption of AI, particularly in real-time clinical decision support and workflow automation, requires substantial processing power.
As a result, chip manufacturers are playing an increasingly vital role in enabling next-generation healthcare systems. More hospitals and health systems are shifting toward edge computing to support AI-driven automation, allowing data to be processed where it is generated, reducing latency and enhancing security.
This shift is critical to scaling AI across the healthcare enterprise and ensuring these technologies can function seamlessly in real-world clinical settings.
Q. What is some advice you can give CIOs and other IT leaders and workers attending HIMSS25?
A. When evaluating new technologies, CIOs and IT leaders should take an enterprise-wide approach, asking not just how a system addresses an immediate challenge, but what kind of clinician and patient experience they want to enable over the next three to five years.
The tendency to implement point solutions that solve acute problems can lead to fragmented systems, unmanageable tech stacks and long-term technical debt. Instead, healthcare leaders should focus on integrated platforms that can scale across multiple departments and care settings, ensuring interoperability and long-term sustainability.
The most efficient hospitals of the future will be those that invest in foundational AI-driven platforms rather than short-term fixes. Technology should be viewed as an operating system for the hospital – one that integrates seamlessly with existing infrastructure, reduces clinician burden and enhances patient care.
Those who prioritize flexible, scalable systems now will avoid the pitfalls of siloed investments and be better prepared to navigate the evolving healthcare landscape with a data-driven, automated and highly efficient approach to care delivery.
