ACHENTX Foundation's 2026 Annual Summit

Healthcare leaders are under pressure to move fast on AI — but speed without trust is a losing strategy. In this keynote, Tim Johnsen, FACHE, draws on his experience as a health system COO, executive coach, and RN to cut through the noise around AI in healthcare. He'll share what separates AI investments that build lasting clinical trust from those that trigger workforce backlash, offer a maturity model for AI adoption used by leading systems today, and outline what the "future business model of healthcare" looks like for organizations that get the people side of AI right. A candid, practical session for executives ready to lead — not just react to — the AI era. Summit tickets include complimentary parking and dinner. Cash bar will be available. Summit Tables are available for purchase (which includes 8 registrant tickets). Additional Summit Sponsorship opportunities are also available.
