Data should under­pin all deci­sion mak­ing. To enable this, we need to be able to get the ​‘right data, to the right peo­ple, at the right time’. This is what good Data Gov­er­nance achieves. Data is also increas­ing­ly desired to be used in AI, which comes with some addi­tion­al con­sid­er­a­tions for gov­er­nance and assur­ance. SA Health have been work­ing towards cre­at­ing the gov­er­nance and assur­ance envi­ron­ment that enables inno­va­tion and data-dri­ven deci­sion mak­ing while ensur­ing meet­ing leg­isla­tive require­ments and safety.

Join Joshua to explore how exec­u­tive lead­er­ship is shap­ing the future of health through smarter data gov­er­nance and innovation.
