Jason Johnson, Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer at Community Health, presented in September 2024 on the use of large language models in healthcare, describing a case study from Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. He stated that the institute prohibited direct clinical use of its AI tool outside of controlled studies, citing concerns about regulatory maturity and patient safety. Johnson noted that the institute worked with Microsoft to deploy a HIPAA-compliant model inside its firewall and that after one year of use, ethics and compliance concerns had decreased, with inaccurate output remaining the primary issue. Johnson has also hosted a podcast on water crises in Black communities, discussing the financial burden of bottled water, the difficulty small towns face in accessing federal grant money, and the impact of the Supreme Court's decision on the Clean Water Act. In a 2020 video message as a school superintendent, he addressed challenges related to COVID-19 social distancing requirements and budget constraints, stating that the school district was at high risk of insolvency due to low funding. In a 2011 TEDx talk, he discussed the decline in book reading and proposed integrating social features into digital books to create a more interactive reading experience.

“We were concerned about our clinicians using public tools like ChatGPT and unknowingly violating HIPAA. We don't want them to break the law or accidentally disclose intellectual property by putting research discoveries into public tools.”
“We asked if we could deploy a commercial large language model inside our firewall in a private and secure way that would be HIPAA compliant and affordable for our 6,000 employees, enabling use for PHI, PII, and intellectual property sensitive cases.”
“Working with Microsoft accelerated our project because of their mature data environment and partnership with OpenAI. They understood healthcare constraints and HIPAA requirements, were flexible and supportive, and helped us debug and configure the system.”
