In a time when healthcare professionals confront unparalleled obstacles, a pertinent question in the realm of healthcare is how can doctors be supported in preserving their well-being and efficiency. HIMSS 2023 unveiled cutting-edge healthcare solutions, targeting AI technology and the crucial issue of physician burnout during the COVID-19 pandemic—breakthroughs that could potentially transform the healthcare landscape.

HIMSS, in a nutshell, is an event that unites healthcare professionals, innovators, and market suppliers globally to discuss the latest advancements in healthcare technology. With over 1,000 companies attending, topics such as digital health transformation, AI, telehealth, and cybersecurity are explored. In addition, physician burnout, which has been exacerbated drastically by the pandemic, is one of the more critical concerns addressed. In fact, a recent study reveals that burnout rates among US physicians have skyrocketed, with one in five considering leaving their current practice within two years due to stress. HIMSS 2023 aimed to tackle this crisis by featuring Suki, a voice-based digital assistant for doctors. Suki aims to alleviate clinician burnout, allowing doctors to focus on patient care while improving efficiency and cost savings. 

Punit Soni, CEO of Suki, shares how Suki is making healthcare tech-assisted and invisible, enabling doctors to work more efficiently and reduce clinician burnout.

Punit’s Thoughts:

“Great. Well, we are Suki, and we are a voice-based digital assistant for doctors. The biggest public health crisis in the country that very few people talk about is clinician burnout. And what Suki does is actually help doctors to basically focus on clinical care and makes healthcare tech-assisted when invisible so that they can do that.

That’s why we are here, and we are trying to make sure that doctors can find out about us. In today’s world where large language models and all sorts of AI technology is the absolute buzzword, we’ve been doing this for about five or six years.

And the key things about Suki is you can use Suki to dictate, you can use Suki to command and get information about the patient if you want to. You can also use Suki and put it in ‘ambient mode’ so that it can automatically generate notes out of a patient-doctor conversation. And if you like pure software that can actually help you do all of those things and works well with your EHRs, then Suki is the right place to be.”

Direct-to-consumer telehealth raises spending, even as ASC investment surges

Direct-to-consumer telehealth raises spending, even as ASC investment surges

A Health Affairs analysis of commercial claims data (2011–13) found 12% of direct-to-consumer telehealth visits replaced visits to other providers and 88% represented new utilization, with net annual spending on acute respiratory illness increasing $45 per telehealth user. Separately, MobiHealthNews reported on August 31, 2026, via a HIMSSCast episode, that Erik Tellefson of Capital One said ambulatory surgery centers “represent one of the clearest growth structures in American healthcare.”

  • 01The most actionable benchmark for finance teams evaluating DTC telehealth is substitution rate, not visit growth. Health Affairs measured 12% substitution and 88% new utilization in commercial claims for acute respiratory illness.
  • 02The $45 per-user net annual spend increase in the Health Affairs analysis is small enough to hide in PMPM reporting but large enough to matter at scale, and it should be stress-tested against virtual-visit eligibility rules and repeat-use patterns.

HFMA’s new chair is a hospital CFO as Medicare reporting gets more detailed and revenue cycle work gets more technical

HFMA’s new chair is a hospital CFO as Medicare reporting gets more detailed and revenue cycle work gets more technical

HFMA named Corewell Health CFO Matthew E. Cox as its national chair effective June 1, 2026, while elevating revenue cycle and reimbursement leaders to its board, according to HFMA’s GlobeNewswire announcement. The association’s own coverage of CMS’s FY 2027 IPPS/LTCH PPS final rule summary and new Medicare cost-reporting requirements such as Worksheet S-12 indicates a compliance workload that is increasingly data- and documentation-heavy for hospital finance and reporting teams. In parallel, HFMA’s certification catalog, including the Certified Hospital Cost Report Specialist (CHCRS) and Certified Specialist Payment & Reimbursement (CSPR), points to how health systems are professionalizing the skill sets needed to operationalize reimbursement policy changes. For operators, the practical consequence shows up in staffing models, audit readiness, and the data plumbing needed to produce defensible cost reports and faster revenue cycle decisions.

  • 01HFMA’s board slate now visibly includes roles that control the work: a system CFO (Corewell Health) and a chief revenue officer overseeing $7 billion in patient revenue at Orlando Health, per GlobeNewswire. That’s a signal that cost reporting and revenue cycle execution are board-level concerns, not back-office chores.
  • 02Medicare cost reporting is moving toward more granular worksheets and documentation, and each new CMS reporting requirement becomes a data-integration project before it becomes a policy memo, per HFMA’s reporting on Worksheet S-12 and its FY 2027 IPPS/LTCH PPS coverage.
  • 03HFMA’s CHCRS, CRCR, and CSPR credentials provide a concrete way to benchmark internal capability: if cost report preparation, managed care contract terms, and prior auth workflows live in different teams, credentialing can reveal where handoffs are breaking down.

FDA QMSR ties supplier contracts to inspection prep

FDA QMSR ties supplier contracts to inspection prep

FDA’s Quality Management System Regulation (QMSR) took effect Feb. 2, 2026, incorporating ISO 13485:2016 into 21 CFR Part 820 and shifting inspections to a process-based model under Compliance Program 7382.850, according to MD+DI. That change is starting to show up outside the quality department: medical device OEMs are being pushed to spell out documentation, audit support, and change-control responsibilities in contract manufacturing agreements, as Medical Design and Outsourcing described. Two recent partnership moves, Ratio Therapeutics expanding radiopharmaceutical manufacturing with PharmaLogic in Idaho Falls and Menicon shifting U.S. Rose K manufacturing access to three partners after concluding a prior arrangement, illustrate how multi-party supply chains now need contract terms that map directly to integrated QMS evidence. The operational consequence is simple: under CP 7382.850, a complaint, supplier nonconformance, or process change can pull investigators across CAPA, risk management, purchasing, and design records in one thread, so contracts and quality records have to be built to travel together.

  • 01Under FDA CP 7382.850, inspection risk increasingly sits in the “handoffs” between complaint handling, CAPA, supplier controls, and the Risk Management File, so quality evidence has to be assembled end-to-end, not by department.
  • 02For OEMs outsourcing manufacturing, the most useful contract test in 2026 is whether each clause produces inspectable artifacts, who owns them, where they live, and how fast they can be produced during an audit.
  • 03Multi-partner manufacturing models, like Menicon’s three-partner Rose K availability and Ratio’s capacity expansion with PharmaLogic, raise the bar on configuration control, supplier risk classification, and change notification across sites.
