AI's toughest proving ground may be skilled nursing
PointClickCare CEO Dave Wessinger argues skilled nursing is AI's hardest proving ground rather than its last stop — narrow margins leave no runway, so the work must get easier the day a tool is switched on — and states the accountability posture directly: AI recommends and explains, the clinician decides, and accountability stays with the care team. For SNF and post-acute operators, a public EHR-vendor commitment to clinician-owned decisions is language worth converting into a contractual representation at renewal, particularly for billing and referral automation where a charted licensed-staff sign-off is the audit evidence.
