Listen Later

In this podcast, Vishal Iyengar, Principal at Deloitte\, and Mike Stimpson, CTO at enGen, discuss the strategic value that AI Agents can unlock to transform healthcare outcomes, operations, and stakeholder experience. They explore the practical use of Agents to answer foundational questions and address requests for information from members and providers that routinely cause abrasion, confusion, and administrative overhead. Vishal and Mike also highlight what is needed for these Agentic solutions to be deployed and adopted for organizations to achieve the expected results – data integrity, cyber security, governance and compliance, and targeted talent. 

In this episode, they talk about:
  • How AI has grown from traditional machine learning to GenAI to today’s Agentic capabilities
  • A simple 3-layer setup: domain agents (specialists), reasoning agents (the organizer), and an enterprise model (the professor)
  • Real-life use cases, like “Is this service covered?” or “Why was my claim denied?”
  • What enGen focuses on to succeed: fresh thinking, outside perspectives, curiosity, a willingness to rebuild, and the right team
  • enGen’s vision is transforming healthcare by supporting members on their whole health journey and creating seamless experiences
  • Smarter data with AI-enabled APIs that make information easy to use across different needs
  • Why speed matters but not at the cost of security and trust
