Policy in the Fast Lane w. Jodi Daniel

Before 2005, your health records were probably sitting in a filing cabinet. Today, they’re digital—but that doesn’t mean they’re accessible, interoperable, or secure. In this episode, I sat down with Jodi Daniel, the legal strategist and former federal policymaker who helped shape how we got here.

Jodi was the first Director of Policy at the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT (ONC). She played a leading role in drafting the HIPAA privacy rules, designing meaningful use policy, and writing the early standards that defined what electronic health records should be. If you’ve ever wondered why health data doesn’t flow the way your banking or travel data does—Jodi explains exactly why.

We talk about why $34 billion in EHR incentives didn’t solve interoperability, the hidden business incentives behind information blocking, and the real reasons your provider still makes you fill out a clipboard. Jodi also shares how new technologies—especially AI—are testing the limits of our current regulatory frameworks.
