Only 18% of health systems in a 2025 HFMA survey had mature governance despite 88% already using AI, and roughly 88% of AI pilots across industries never reach production. The path forward is building a unified data foundation, trustworthy governance, and a shared operating model before scaling AI initiatives. Modern tooling now makes it possible to stand up a governed first use case in days rather than quarters — Premier configured Databricks Genie for production in three days. Being late to AI adoption is an advantage if it means avoiding the technical debt and ungoverned pilots that early movers are now untangling. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
