News You Can Use: NYCU Special Edition with Phia Pt 6 of 6

If you’ve ever wondered why splitting your brand budget from your demand gen budget always seems to end with brand getting cut first, this episode is for you. Host Adam Turinas sat down with Drew Neisser, founder of CMO Huddles, a peer community built exclusively for B2B CMOs with over 800 members, to dig into what’s actually changed for CMOs in the AI era, and what hasn’t. They talk about why AI is turning competent content into a commodity, and why that actually makes human judgment, humor, and original thinking more valuable, not less. Drew makes the case for the return of the big idea, and explains why treating brand and demand gen as separate budgets sets marketing and sales up to work against each other.

On this episode, an encore of Justin invites back Tony Nunes, Senior Manager, Healthcare & Life Sciences at AMD to discuss the upcoming Fall conference schedule along with a sprinkle of AI wisdom.

On this SPECIAL Edition with Adam Russo, Esq., CEO and Co-Founder of The Phia Group - Part 6: Straight Talk, Better Benefits. Healthcare Isn't Broken - It's Designed to Keep You Confused The healthcare system is intentionally opaque, designed to keep us confused and compliant rather than informed and empowered. 98% of procedures are planned, yet we spend more time researching TVs than questioning doctors or prescriptions, driven by fear and conditioned acceptance. Vertical integration across the supply chain (hospital systems owning physician groups, PBMs, and pharmacies) creates closed loops that drive prices up without antitrust scrutiny. Companies that engage employees openly see better retention, health outcomes, and productivity. Ask questions about generics, billing accuracy, and out-of-network costs, and demand to see how your healthcare dollars are spent.

On this episode of PopHealth Week on Healthcare NOW Radio, Fred Goldstein engages Chris Caramanico, Chief Executive Officer of Elligint Health, for a wide-ranging conversation about the evolving role of data, analytics, artificial intelligence, and workflow automation in population health management. Caramanico draws on three decades of healthcare IT experience to make the case that the industry has finally crossed a threshold - where data infrastructure is mature enough, and AI capable enough, to fundamentally change how health plans, care managers, and utilization management teams operate. The discussion covers everything from the long arc of interoperability reform and the implications of the CMS Interoperability and Prior Authorization Final Rule (CMS-0057-F), to ambient listening, AI agent deployment in member engagement, and the strategic choices payers face as they attempt to scale without proportionally scaling headcount.

Separating the Hype from Reality in the Healthcare AI On this episode host Tom Foley invites Sergei Polevikov, author of "Advancing AI in Healthcare" and founder of FixHealth.ai. Exploring the current state and future potential of AI in healthcare, Sergei expresses skepticism about claims that AI will completely replace clinicians, citing weak evidence in many studies and emphasizing the need for proper peer review and regulatory oversight. However, AI could help address the growing gap between increasing patient needs and decreasing clinical resources, particularly in underserved areas, while acknowledging that current AI models are not yet ready for autonomous clinical decision-making.
