Ep#222 EverythingALS & Compass UOL: Using AI to Fight Brain Disease

Episode Sponsor

HIMSS 2025 - Healthcare - Biotech
In this episode of The Jon Myer Podcast, we explore the critical importance of Digital Employee Experience (DEX) in modern healthcare with Marcel Calef, Americas Field CTO at ControlUp. Marcel explains how DEX transforms the way healthcare IT supports clinicians and ultimately impacts patient care.

The average healthcare employee spends a staggering 30 minutes per day waiting for IT systems to respond – valuable time that could be spent treating patients. Marcel shares insights on how predictive IT support can identify issues before they happen, reducing downtime and frustration for healthcare professionals who need immediate access to patient records and clinical applications.

Learn how real-time monitoring and proactive remediation are changing healthcare IT from reactive problem-solving to predictive support that enhances clinician productivity and improves patient outcomes. Marcel also discusses his observations from the recent HIMSS conference and how healthcare technology is evolving from hardware-focused solutions to software services that optimize workflows.

⏱️ The average healthcare employee wastes 30 minutes daily waiting for IT issues to be resolved – time that could be spent on patient care.
🔍 DEX focuses on predicting and preventing IT issues before they happen rather than merely responding to problems after they occur.
🏥 In healthcare, time is critical – both for urgent patient care and for maximizing the limited time clinicians have with each patient.
💻 Effective DEX allows IT to approach problems with data and insight rather than starting with "Have you tried rebooting?"
🔄 Real-time monitoring (every 3 seconds) helps distinguish between normal temporary system spikes and actual problems requiring intervention.
🚑 Slow login times, application issues, and connectivity problems directly impact clinicians' ability to access critical patient information.
📱 DEX helps identify specific areas in healthcare facilities where technology issues occur, such as WiFi dead zones in certain corridors.

Marcel shares insights on how predictive IT support can identify issues before they happen, reducing downtime and frustration for healthcare professionals who need immediate access to patient records and clinical applications.

Learn how real-time monitoring and proactive remediation are changing healthcare IT from reactive problem-solving to predictive support that enhances clinician productivity and improves patient outcomes. Marcel also discusses his observations from the recent HIMSS conference and how healthcare technology is evolving from hardware-focused solutions to software services that optimize workflows.

⏱️ The average healthcare employee wastes 30 minutes daily waiting for IT issues to be resolved – time that could be spent on patient care.
🔍 DEX focuses on predicting and preventing IT issues before they happen rather than merely responding to problems after they occur.
🏥 In healthcare, time is critical – both for urgent patient care and for maximizing the limited time clinicians have with each patient.
💻 Effective DEX allows IT to approach problems with data and insight rather than starting with "Have you tried rebooting?"
🔄 Real-time monitoring (every 3 seconds) helps distinguish between normal temporary system spikes and actual problems requiring intervention.
🚑 Slow login times, application issues, and connectivity problems directly impact clinicians' ability to access critical patient information.
📱 DEX helps identify specific areas in healthcare facilities where technology issues occur, such as WiFi dead zones in certain corridors.

Ep#231 Digital Employee Experience (DEX) in Modern Healthcare

In this episode of The Jon Myer Podcast, we tackle the critical issue of cybersecurity in healthcare with Jeff Warren, Chief Product Officer at Netwrix. With healthcare organizations increasingly becoming targets for cyberattacks, Jeff shares insights on why these institutions are vulnerable and how they can better protect sensitive patient data.

A staggering 84% of healthcare organizations faced cyberattack attempts last year. Jeff explains how attackers repeatedly exploit the same vulnerabilities - from identity management weaknesses to third-party security gaps - and offers practical solutions that go beyond basic HIPAA compliance.

We also explore how cloud adoption and AI implementation are creating new security challenges for healthcare organizations. Jeff discusses the dangers of "shadow AI" and why simply meeting regulatory requirements isn't enough to prevent breaches in today's complex digital landscape.

Whether you're an IT professional in healthcare or simply interested in how your medical data is being protected, this episode provides valuable insights into building truly resilient security systems in an industry where data protection is literally a matter of life and death.
