Advocate Health's Hugh Chatham draws 65 applicants for 12 surgical tech seats

Advocate Health's Hugh Chatham draws 65 applicants for 12 surgical tech seats

Hugh Chatham Health and Alleghany Health marked one year inside Advocate Health with a surgical technology program that drew 65 applicants for 12 seats. Year one also brought $11.3 million in pay and rewards, $19.3 million in capital and nearly 1,000 specialty transfers. Local training seats look like the next limit in Elkin.

  • 01In rural North Carolina, a new surgical technology program drew more than five applicants per seat, which points to training capacity, not interest, as the thing to expand.
  • 02Pay spending in the first year of a rural affiliation came to roughly 58% of the capital figure: $11.3 million in total rewards next to $19.3 million in capital.
  • 03Transfers outnumbered virtual specialty consults about 14 to 1 in year one, so the planned growth in virtual care is the year-two number worth tracking.

AI cuts cardiologists' echocardiogram review time by 46%

AI cuts cardiologists' echocardiogram review time by 46%

Late-breaking research presented November 9 at the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions 2026 reported that AI-drafted preliminary echocardiogram reports were comparable to human drafts. Cardiologists averaged 4.6 minutes finalizing AI drafts versus 8.5 minutes without AI. The findings are a non-peer-reviewed abstract.

  • 01Cardiologists averaged 4.6 minutes finalizing AI-drafted echo reports versus 8.5 minutes without AI, about 46% less time.
  • 02Cardiologists made substantial changes to 50.6% of AI drafts and 49.7% of human drafts.
  • 03The research used 1,200 echocardiograms from 21 Kaiser Permanente Northern California medical centers.

After Chicago: Did AI at AHA 2026 Pass Its Own Test?

After Chicago: Did AI at AHA 2026 Pass Its Own Test?

At AHA Scientific Sessions 2026 in Chicago, AI ECHO INSIGHT, WATCH-LV, PARAMOUNT and PROVAR+ showed gains in workflow efficiency, screening and treatment decisions, but none established a reduction in hard clinical events. The takeaway: the next test is proving these tools improve outcomes, especially in high-need populations, by connecting to established care.

  • 01AI ECHO INSIGHT cut echo reads 8.5 to 4.6 minutes, and PARAMOUNT changed treatment decisions, but no AI late-breaker showed fewer hard events.
  • 02ZEUS and Lp(a)HORIZON lowered their target biomarkers without reducing major cardiovascular events, a caution against treating algorithmic accuracy alone as proof of patient benefit.
  • 03Low-technology, team-based interventions such as CATCH in Colombia and Jamaica lowered blood pressure, showing the care systems AI tools must connect to.
