Brief Session Description : This combined session brings together the four overlapping AI proposals to show how AI is already improving PM&R administration, day-to-day clinical work, and teaching. We’ll cover leadership-level strategy (workforce, policy, compliance, ), pragmatic clinical operations (documentation, letters of medical necessity, clinical decision support, inpatient/outpatient workflows), and education (creating evidence-aligned materials, quizzes, and cases). A live, safety-minded demo block will highlight ambient scribing and rapid content generation while addressing bias, accuracy, and governance. Attendees leave with vetted prompts, rollout checklists, and a realistic, compliance-forward adoption plan.
