AI and emerging technologies are rapidly transforming healthcare and health insurance, creating opportunities for operational efficiency, innovation, improved patient/member outcomes, and enterprise value creation — while simultaneously introducing significant governance risks related to compliance, ethics, cybersecurity, transparency, and trust.

Join NACD Minnesota and RSM for a board-level discussion focused on the board’s role in overseeing AI responsibly while balancing innovation, enterprise risk, and stakeholder accountability.

This timely program will bring together healthcare governance, legal, and technology leaders along with RSM perspective to explore how boards can provide effective oversight and stewardship of AI initiatives in one of the most highly regulated and mission-critical sectors of the economy.

Gain practical governance insights into the decision-making guiderails and boardroom practices that enable directors to move beyond an understanding of AI to exercising sound judgment in overseeing AI strategy and implementation.
