Partnership will help translate AI governance expectations into real-world procurement, contracting, and deployment practices for healthcare organizations
New York, NY - July 21, 2026 – Heidi, the AI Care Partner used in around 2.7 million patient interactions globally each week, today announced its participation in the Digital Medicine Society's (DiMe) new initiative, Operationalizing AI Governance. The project sits within DiMe's Connected Health Collaborative Community (CHcc) and gives organizations practical, tested strategies for putting AI governance principles into practice across procurement, contracting, implementation, and deployment.
AI is increasingly embedded in healthcare delivery and operations, but governance has not kept pace. Heidi's recent Pressure Points report found that 83% of clinicians are navigating AI in their practice without guidance from their employer, a formal policy, or a recommended tool. The frameworks that do exist are largely abstract, leaving leaders without a clear path to manage risk, monitor performance, or integrate AI sustainably into clinical and operational workflows.
