In this episode of HealthTech Voices, host Sanjay Subramanian, SVP and Head of the Healthcare Payer business unit, Cognizant, with the Chief Data and Digital AI Transformation Officer at Elevance Health, Ashok Chennuru, discuss how AI impacts work in payer organizations.
Healthcare is under constant pressure to improve experiences and outcomes and reduce complexity – and AI is now central to that conversation. But the real question is not whether AI matters, it’s how organizations deploy it responsibly, at scale, and in ways that genuinely improve experiences for consumers, providers, and the workforce.
The two leaders discuss how organizations can reduce complexity, enable proactive care, prepare for AI with a foundation of connected data, operationalize trust, and scale AI across the business. With Sanjay’s and Ashok’s insight, listeners can build toward a future healthcare industry that is simpler, more connected, proactive and personalized.
