In this episode of the Digital Innovator Circle, we sit down with Dr. Ami Bhatt, Chief Innovation Officer at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) and Chair of the FDA’s Digital Health Advisory Committee. With over two decades in cardiology and a deep background in digital health, Dr. Bhatt shares how the ACC is shaping the next generation of clinicians and driving large-scale transformation in care delivery through AI, telemedicine, and data-driven education.

Dr. Bhatt shares:

• Why ACC created a Chief Innovation Officer role 10 years ago—and how it evolved post-COVID
• How the ACC is training AI-enabled clinicians through education, infrastructure, and cross-team integration
• The three pillars of ACC’s innovation program: improving outcomes locally, enabling clinicians, and guiding tech companies
• Real-world examples of AI in action: voice-to-text documentation, ECG interpretation, and population screening
• Why transparency and outcomes matter more than explainability in modern AI
• How the ACC is embedding AI education across all clinical tracks—not siloing it
• What it takes to scale digital health innovations beyond academic centers
• The role of associations in delivering trusted, curated education in the age of misinformation
• Why ACC Anywhere (launched with Evermed) hit 30,000+ hours of use in Year 1—and where it’s going next

👉 If you’re a medical association leader, this case study is a must-listen.

In this episode of the Digital Innovator Circle, we sit down with Mike Fraser, CEO of the College of American Pathologists (CAP), to explore how his organization, with 19,000 members, reimagined its digital education strategy—and launched CAP on Demand, a Netflix-style content library, in 108 days.

Mike shares how CAP approached this bold innovation as a member value initiative (not a direct monetization play), how they consolidated scattered content into one curated hub, and why he believes the future of medical associations lies in daily-use, AI-powered content platforms.

Mike shares:

• Why CAP chose to prioritize member value over monetization from day one
• How they launched CAP on Demand in just 108 days—without rebuilding their website
• The strategy behind curating vs. creating: “We’re in the business of trust”
• How CAP is evolving from vertical silos to cross-functional content strategy
• The powerful role of committees, journals, and subspecialty channels in driving engagement
• Why pathologists may soon start their day with CAP on Demand—like they do with YouTube or LinkedIn
• Creative ideas for the future: studio content, daily news, exclusive channels, and trainee showcases
• Advice to other execs: “This isn’t about CME. This is about relevance, trust, and becoming part of their daily life.”
