The College of Healthcare Information Management Executives released its 2026 Digital Health Most Wired report. It surveyed more than 48,800 health facilities in 46 U.S. states and five countries. The report says 93.2% of those organizations are using AI in clinical or operational work. Fully adopted generative AI rose from 31.0% to 54.8% in one year. Only 16.4% of AI users have fully documented monitoring processes for models after deployment.
Why it matters
Most U.S. health systems now rely on AI, so clinicians will see AI‑driven tools become routine, but many still lack robust model‑monitoring safeguards.
