Winning Without AI, and Why It's Harder for Ortho in 2027
December 16, 2026 | 1:00 - 2:30 pm ET
AI is everywhere, but the fundamentals of a winning orthopedic practice haven’t changed: excellent care, great providers, and owning the patient relationship. You can still win without AI. But in 2027, it will cost you so much more.
In this candid conversation, Raleigh Orthopaedic CEO Brian Bizub and Dr. Leon Anijar of Flagler Health break down what each fundamental really costs to deliver manually, and where AI changes the math. This webinar is for practice administrators and executives planning for 2027. Registrants receive the recording and a one-page scorecard to size up their practice’s manual workload.
