  • AIMS platforms are critical for value-based care, enabling data-driven decision-making and quality improvement.
  • AI integration enhances predictive analytics and clinical decision support, but transparency and clinician skill retention remain essential.
  • Portability is increasingly important as anesthesia providers work in diverse settings.
  • The financial investment in AIMS is justified by improvements in efficiency, safety, and patient outcomes.
  • The real power of AIMS is liberating data that was previously trapped on paper to improve patient care, unlock real-time analytics, and make providers better.
