The 2nd Annual HealthAI Summit: Proving What's Possible

Thursday, October 8, 2026 · Embassy Suites Albuquerque · 8:00 AM – 6:30 PM

One room. ~200 healthcare leaders, innovators, researchers, funders, and policymakers — connecting what’s possible in healthcare with what it actually takes to make it happen.

What can AI and emerging technology actually do in healthcare today? How do you distinguish a useful tool from a polished demo? What does it take to get innovation through the realities of a health system and into practice? And where are people already proving that different models of care are possible?

One room. One shared conversation.

HealthAI brings the whole room through the day together, connecting possibility, practice, and partnership — from how patient expectations are changing, to evaluating AI and digital health tools, to the candid story of what it takes to implement innovation inside a health system.

You'll hear from people doing the work, including leaders from Amazon One Medical, Bigbee Labs, UNM Health, New Mexico health systems, and emerging health technology companies, with additional speakers being announced as the program is finalized.

On the program

• The Future of Care Is Consumer-First — Adrienne Adams, Amazon One Medical on what patients will expect from healthcare over the next five years, from access and experience to the technology working behind the scenes.
• Cutting Through the AI Hype — Joseph Villa, CEO, Bigbee Labs with a candid look at what today's AI can actually do, where it falls short, and how healthcare leaders can think more clearly about the technology.
• Evaluating AI & Digital Health Tools — Ling Kung, Kaiser Permanente on practical frameworks for assessing new technologies, asking better questions, and separating promising products from polished demos.
• Innovating From Within: Inside a Health System Pilot — IrisXR + Lovelace/Ardent Health, moderated by Dr. Dusadee Sarangarm, CMIO, UNM Health. Both sides of a real health-system pilot unpack the approvals, trust, clinical workflow, setbacks, and decisions it takes to move an idea into real-world care.
• The First 1,000 Days: Reimagining Care to Change a Lifetime — leaders from MECA Therapies, SYNCRONYS (New Mexico's statewide health information exchange), WK Kellogg Foundation, and Adhara Health explore what better coordination, data, and collaboration could make possible for children and families.

Throughout the day, the HealthAI Innovation Showcase brings the conversation into practice. Short demonstrations from Adhara Health, Bloomlife, Manatee, Triangle Health, and Vital Care Connect put real solutions in the context of the healthcare problems they're trying to solve.

Come with a problem. Leave with people to call.

HealthAI is designed to make the room as valuable as the stage.

Interactive polls, topic-based lunch tables, a community problem-sharing wall, live demonstrations, and an evening reception create opportunities to find the people working on the same problems you are — whether they sit inside a health system, university, startup, public agency, investment firm, or somewhere in between.

If you are responsible for improving healthcare — through care delivery, technology, research, policy, investment, or implementation — this room was built for you.

HealthAI builds on the inaugural Summit and Health ImpACT, a statewide network connecting healthcare organizations, innovators, researchers, and investors around real-world pilot opportunities and partnerships across New Mexico.

Your registration includes: continental breakfast, plated lunch, the full Summit program and Innovation Showcase, interactive experiences throughout the day, and a hosted closing reception with drinks and hors d'oeuvres.
