Mayo, Kaiser, and the AI Governance Gap No One Wants to Own

Show notes

A Mayo Clinic retaliation lawsuit and a Kaiser nurses protest broke the same week — and they point to the same structural failure. Dr. Wellis and health policy expert Emily Parker dissect what happens when health systems deploy AI without real internal accountability, and what C-suite leaders must do before the next deployment.

Dr. Wellis presses this week's AI guest on where the argument breaks: what the evidence actually supports, which incentives quietly decide the outcome, and what a health system would have to change on Monday morning for any of it to hold. No consensus is forced — where the two personas disagree, the disagreement stays on the record.
