Time to Critical Care: How AI Can Cut Patient Wait Times | Dr. Jamie Wisser & Robert Holton
Description
When every minute counts, inefficiencies in communication and data flow can cost lives. In this episode of Biomedical Frontiers, trauma surgeon Dr. Jamie Wisser and entrepreneur Robert Holton share how they’re using AI and interoperability to accelerate time to critical care.
Dr. Wisser, founder of Actual Healthcare Solutions, describes how his experience performing 26-hour reconstructive surgeries exposed the limits of today’s electronic medical records. Together with Holton, he’s building a platform that connects hospital systems, specialists, and radiologists in real time—using AI to automate referrals, interpret imaging in seconds, and bridge the silos that slow patient care.
💡 What you’ll learn:
✅ Why healthcare still runs on disconnected “data islands”
✅ How AI-driven radiology can deliver results in under 30 seconds
✅ How interoperability can improve patient outcomes and physician efficiency
