Description

ViVE 2026, held February 22–25 in Los Angeles, brought together more than 7,000 attendees, 230+ speakers, and 300 exhibitors to define the year’s direction in digital health. It reinforced a pivotal message for the healthcare IT ecosystem: AI has moved beyond experimentation and is now a core enterprise capability requiring scale, governance, and alignment. As organizations shift from pilot-stage to operationalizing AI across the enterprise, internal alignment—across expectations, workflows, and governance—is emerging as the primary barrier to progress. Solutions showcased at ViVE emphasized AI orchestration, enabling disparate models and tools to operate cohesively across legacy systems and reducing deployment friction.

Apart from AI governance and scalability, three other trends emerged as focus areas for digital health investment and innovation. First, non?clinical workflow automation—from revenue cycle management to patient communication and asset intelligence—is becoming the earliest and most scalable proving ground for AI’s enterprise value. Second, virtual care models are expanding beyond traditional telehealth to augment onsite care teams through virtual monitoring, asynchronous clinical pathways, and digital-first clinics. Finally, infrastructure modernization—including private 5G, edge computing, and smart connectivity—has become foundational to supporting secure, AI operations. Together, these converging trends position the healthcare industry for accelerated transformation—one defined by intelligent automation, interoperable ecosystems, and next?generation organizational readiness.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
