< + > The Healthcare IT Olympics – Healthcare IT Today Podcast Episode 187

For the 187th episode of the Healthcare IT Today Podcast, sponsored by Swaay.Health, we are doing an Olympics-inspired episode, looking at Healthcare IT! We kick this episode off by debating what 3 healthcare IT challenges would be on the podium right now. Next, we talk about what Olympic medal would be given to health IT if one existed. Then we take a look at all of the Olympic sports to pick out which one best represents what it’s like in Healthcare/Health IT right now. Lastly, we conclude this episode by discussing when it is and isn’t great to win a healthcare IT contract, just like how winning the Olympics is a huge deal for a city, but can also be a financial challenge too.

This week’s episode is brought to you by Swaay.Health! If you are in healthcare marketing, PR, communications, or patient experience at a hospital, clinic, payer, health IT company, or agency, you need to be at our Swaay.Health LIVE 2026 event, April 29 to May 2 in Foxborough. It’s the premier event to learn, network, and get energized. Head over to Live.Swaay.Health to learn more!

Here’s a preview of the topics and questions we discuss in this episode:

  • What 3 healthcare IT challenges would be on the podium right now?
  • If there were an Olympic medal given to health IT, what would it be?
  • What Olympic sport best represents what it’s like in Healthcare/Health IT right now?
