In Conversation: Pranay Kapadia
CEO & Co-Founder, Notable - on why health systems face more danger from slow AI adoption than hasty rollouts
Few voices in healthcare technology carry as much practical weight right now as Pranay Kapadia, CEO & Co-Founder, Notable. In a wide-ranging conversation conducted by HIT Consultant, Pranay laid out a view of the industry that is both candid and immediately useful to the executives, clinicians, and builders who read HealthTech Cube.
The conversation
Why health systems face more danger from slow AI adoption than hasty rollouts - and the case for platform-level automation across the enterprise instead of scattered point tools.
“The risk is not moving too fast with AI, but moving too slow.”

The bigger picture
The AI adoption question runs through every executive conversation in 2026. The evidence base is finally arriving: the largest controlled study of ambient documentation, published in JAMA, found clinicians saved 16 minutes of documentation time per day - but only a third of users hit the usage threshold for maximum benefit (our coverage). Meanwhile Rock Health has stopped labeling AI as a differentiator at all, because every company claims it - which is exactly why operating discipline of the kind described here separates winners from demo-ware.
Virtual care's policy clock frames everything: Medicare telehealth flexibilities run through December 31, 2027, hospital-at-home through 2030, and utilization jumped 10.1% in Q1 2026 alone (our coverage). Health systems making the moves discussed here are building against that runway - and lobbying to make it permanent.
The conversation is a study in how theory meets the operating reality of healthcare. At Notable, that thinking translates into daily decisions about where technology genuinely earns its place in care delivery, and where discipline matters more than novelty.
The HTC take
For HealthTech Cube readers, the takeaway is less about any single tool and more about the operating discipline behind it: technology follows strategy, never the reverse.
