From EMRs to AI: Where Healthcare Technology Is Actually Headed

In this episode of Health Tech Checkup, hosts Rachelle Galant and Perry Dimas sit down healthcare veteran Lary Ippolito to unpack more than three decades of transformation across health systems, technology, and patient care.
From his early days at Accenture to a 29-year career at Cerner, Lary shares a firsthand look at the evolution of electronic medical records (EMRs)—from early resistance to total reliance. He reflects on how clinicians went from paper charts and fax machines to fully connected systems, and what happens when that technology suddenly disappears.
Lary also explores the promises—and risks—of AI in healthcare, from clinical decision support to patient self-diagnosis, highlighting where automation can enhance care and where human judgment remains essential.
Looking ahead, Lary shares candid insights on what he would do differently, including the missed opportunity to engage patients earlier, and why winning the “hearts and minds” of providers has historically determined which technologies succeed.
He also outlines where innovation is heading next: AI-powered clinical insights, preventative care, and tools that help patients better navigate an increasingly complex healthcare system.
This episode is a thoughtful exploration of how far healthcare has come—and where it’s still catching up—through the lens of someone who’s been in the room for it all.
