Digital Leadership Day Healthcare

Ontario healthcare leaders are under pressure to connect fragmented systems, modernize delivery, and improve patient outcomes while protecting trust. This session will show how you can align digital strategy, clinical priorities, and governance so your organization can move from isolated projects to connected care.

• Align digital strategy, clinical priorities, and system transformation around measurable patient outcomes
• Transform fragmented care pathways by improving information flow across hospitals, primary care, specialists, and health networks
• Build future-ready healthcare organizations by aligning data, talent, governance, and operating models

Ontario health organizations are trying to connect care across hospitals, primary care, community providers, and home-based settings while still working within legacy systems, tight capacity, and rising trust expectations. This session will share practical insights on how health technology, integration, and advisory partners can help leaders move from disconnected digital projects to more coordinated, measurable, and patient-centred models of care.

• Identify where fragmented systems, workflows, and data-sharing gaps are limiting connected care across the patient journey
• Improve interoperability by aligning technology choices with clinical workflows, provincial standards, and real information-flow needs
• Reduce implementation risk by building privacy, cyber resilience, change management, and adoption planning into modernization from the start
• Strengthen patient and provider experience by applying digital tools where they remove friction, reduce duplication, and support better hand-offs
• Measure partnership value through outcomes that matter to health leaders, including access, clinician time, care coordination, safety, and trust

AI is moving quickly into clinical, operational, and administrative healthcare workflows, increasing the need for clear governance, safety, and adoption discipline. This session will help you identify practical AI use cases and safeguards so your organization can improve productivity and care quality without losing clinical trust.

• Assess AI opportunities against patient impact, workflow fit, privacy, and clinical safety
• Embed governance, human oversight, and escalation pathways before AI tools scale
• Transform documentation, patient flow, decision support, and operational planning with responsible use cases
• Build workforce readiness by aligning skills, accountability, and change management with AI adoption

Digital health strategies only create value when they are adopted by clinicians, embedded into operations, and trusted by patients and care teams. This session will explore how industry partners can support health leaders with the implementation discipline, workflow insight, and evidence needed to move AI, automation, interoperability, and access initiatives from promise to practical impact.

• Translate digital health priorities into implementation plans that reflect clinical realities, workforce capacity, and operational pressure
• Improve adoption by designing solutions around provider workflows, patient needs, accessibility, and assisted digital pathways
• Strengthen confidence in AI, automation, and connected-care tools through clear governance, human oversight, privacy, and safety controls
• Demonstrate value with practical evidence, including time saved, reduced administrative burden, improved access, and better care coordination
• Build sustainable partnerships that help health organizations scale what works without adding complexity for frontline teams

Split into specialized conversation areas and join engaging discussions to dive deeper into your innovation priorities.

Healthcare modernization succeeds when strategy is translated into funded priorities, accountable leadership, human-centred delivery, and trusted governance. This session will share real-world implementation lessons so you can move digital health, AI, interoperability, and cyber resilience from ambition into execution while keeping patients, providers, and public confidence at the centre.

• Translate Ontario’s digital health direction into practical leadership decisions across systems, teams, and care pathways
• Improve workforce readiness, clinical adoption, procurement, and change management through clearer operating models
• Strengthen the human experience by reducing friction for patients, providers, and care teams as new tools scale
• Reduce implementation risk by learning from early adoption barriers, governance gaps, and delivery constraints
• Prioritize next steps that improve outcomes, save time, and build trust in healthcare innovation
