The AI-Informed Patient: A Half-Day Workshop for Hospital Leaders and Clinicians

A half-day workshop for hospital leaders, physicians, and nurses on how your patients are already using AI — and what to do about it.

"Your patients are already getting a second opinion. You are just not in the room for it."

32%

of U.S. adults have used an AI chatbot for health information — double the year before (Rock Health, 2025)

79%

of patients who get an AI second opinion never tell their provider (Tebra, 2026)

74%

of clinicians say patients now arrive already “AI-informed” (Philips Future Health Index, 2026)

Why this session exists

Your patients are already doing their own research — at 2am, on their phones, before or after they ever see you. Some are adjusting their own medications based on what a chatbot told them. Most never mention any of it, not because they're trying to deceive you, but because they're afraid of being judged. The result is a widening gap between what clinicians assume patients are doing and what patients are actually doing. This session closes that gap.

What happens in the room

Framing: the scale of the shift, in ten minutes.
The AI-Informed Patient Quiz: ten evidence-graded questions, run live. Each team defends its answer before the reveal. This is the core 45-minute module, built directly from the current research base.
Role-based breakout: intake, bedside, and discharge teams work through what changes in their specific workflow.
Commitment session: every team leaves with one specific, named 90-day change.

Who it's for

Nurses
Physicians
Hospital administrators
Patient experience & compliance leaders

What you walk away with

A shared vocabulary for talking with patients about their AI use — without shutting the conversation down.
A leadership-ready summary of the ten current studies behind these numbers, so you can bring the case upstream.
One committed, specific 90-day action per team.

The evidence behind it

Every statistic in this workshop traces back to a named, dated study — not a vibe. The research base spans peer-reviewed meta-analyses, probability-based national surveys, and first-party platform data, all published between August 2025 and August 2026:

Dan Noyes is a senior healthcare AI researcher and certified patient leader who works at the intersection of AI governance and patient experience. He is the author of The Healthcare AI Governance Playbook and Subjects to Sovereigns: Reclaiming Medicine in the Age of AI, and he built this workshop around a simple conviction: patients are already using AI to manage their own care, whether or not their hospital has a plan for it. His work helps health systems make that shift governable — starting with the people in the room.
