Coalition for Health AI (CHAI)

“Our goal is to make AI evaluation simple, secure, and actionable, so innovators and health systems can collaborate faster and more responsibly.” – Mary Beth Chalk, BeekeeperAI Last week, CHAI hosted an in-depth Q&A featuring Mary Beth Chalk, Co-Founder & Chief Commercial Officer at BeeKeeperAI; Moh Noori & CEO of ScriptChain Health; and Muhammed Y. Idris, PhD, Assistant Professor of Medicine & Co-Director of the Center for the Validation of Digital Health Technologies and Clinical Algorithms at Morehouse School of Medicine. The discussion shared a first-of-its-kind collaboration in AI validation, where ScriptChain Health’s patient-finding AI model was locally validated at Morehouse School of Medicine using BeeKeeperAI’s secure, privacy-preserving technology. Thank you to all who participated in the discussion. Stay tuned for more upcoming webinars with CHAI members sharing learnings from the front-lines of AI development, implementation, and evaluation in healthcare. #HealthcareOnLinkedIn #HealthAI #AI

"Building trust starts with building a relationship based on transparency around how models perform – and how the models are actually going to help providers accomplish the clinical or administrative workflows for the health system that they have front and center." Yesterday at HLTH2025, CHAI CEO Brian Anderson, MD spoke on a panel about how AI can reinvigorate Medicaid & Medicare to improve healthcare access and the critical role of startups in reaching rural and low-resourced populations. Thank you to Washington State Health Care Authority’s Christopher Chen, MD, MBA, Mae’s Maya Hardigan, and Fortuna Health’s Nikita Singareddy for sharing your valuable perspectives and to Town Hall Ventures’s Meera Mani, MD-PhD for leading this important discussion on how innovation and technology can shape the future of health AI. #HealthcareOnLinkedIn #HealthAI #AI #HLTHUSA

“In healthcare research, if someone developed a novel therapy or surgical method, it would be shared everywhere. In the world of AI, we haven't seen that as much yet, but CHAI is critical to scaling adoption and getting to the best place faster.” Read our recent Q&A with insights from Sebastien Rhodes, Vice President of Strategy and Operations at Triomics, one of our valued CHAI startup members. Sebastien shares Triomic’s approach to effectively extract key data elements from unstructured data sources so that every single patient with an appointment gets screened for clinical research, proactively supplying key insights to providers.

Watch CHAI CEO Brian Anderson, MD, chat with Amy Simmons Farber after his keynote at the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC)’s #CHIexpo25. Brian and Amy discuss the exciting new partnership between CHAI and NACHC and how the organizations are coming together to bring AI to community health centers across the country. CHAI and NACHC are proud to work together to support safe, responsible AI adoption across CHCs serving nearly 34 million patients nationwide—helping expand access, improve outcomes, and deliver better care. #HealthcareOnLinkedIn #HealthAI #AI

“AI will disrupt every part of health and health care delivery in the coming years. Given the many long-standing problems in health care, this disruption represents an incredible opportunity." We are proud to share a new article in JAMA including contributions by multiple CHAI members discussing the need for an ecosystem to support responsible deployment of health AI tools and technologies and the implications for health care infrastructure and workforce. This paper is a result of a recent JAMA Summit to review the state of AI in health. It includes discussion on the evaluation of clinical tools, direct-to-consumer solutions, and health care business operations tools while outlining challenges for the responsible implementation and monitoring of AI tools, offering potential solutions with implications. Thank you to CHAI members who contributed to this important work – Suchi Saria, Nigam Shah, Peter J. Embí, M.D., M.S., Christopher Longhurst, David Rhew, M.D., Lee Schwamm, MD, Karandeep Singh, Vincent Liu, Kenneth Mandl, Thomas Wang, Tina Hernandez-Boussard, and Brian Anderson, MD, CEO of CHAI – and the other authors. Together, we can build an AI ecosystem that empowers health systems and improves outcomes for all.

As an inaugural member of URAC’s AI Accreditation Advisory Group and an early participant in multiple Coalition for Health AI (CHAI) workgroups, I’ve seen firsthand how complex and essential the creation of responsible AI standards can be. Without some degree of alignment, AI implementation in healthcare becomes exponentially more difficult, and patients ultimately lose access to innovations that could meaningfully improve outcomes. In my recent discussion with Gabriel Perna at Modern Healthcare I spoke about how “aligning toward a standard makes it easier for a vendor coming in. Trying to align with 2,000-plus different hospitals across 600-plus health systems can be overwhelming for startups and almost lock them out if the assessment task is so complex that they can’t break through.” Public–private partnerships remain one of the most agile and powerful ways to advance thoughtful, safe, and scalable adoption of AI across the health ecosystem.
