Your Organization’s Context
Why deploy health AI at all?
What it does
One AI Management System: FORGE™ configures the CHAR reference model into governance, selection, and continuous monitoring for every health AI tool you run.
Who it's for
Health systems, academic medical centers, and imaging groups, and the CIOs, CAIOs, CMOs, and boards accountable for AI.
Why Asher Informatics
Built by medical informaticists and PhDs for MDs — veteran builders of healthcare IT and medical device software, including AI and SaMD systems, bringing the systems engineering and process discipline regulated industries demand.
Built for who is accountable
Governance that speaks to every leader accountable for AI
One platform, four mandates. Each leader gets the oversight, evidence, and outcome they are measured on.
CAIO
Chief AI Officer
Own enterprise AI strategy and prove the portfolio is working — the operating system that makes the mandate executable.
Risk & Compliance
Risk, Quality & Compliance
Stay continuously audit-ready for ISO 42001, state law, and accreditation — with evidence trails behind every decision.
CIO / CISO
Technology & Security
See, secure, and manage every AI across the enterprise — vendor-supplied and homegrown — in one accountable layer.
CMO / CMIO
Clinical Accountability
When AI touches care, keep the answer to "is it safe?" clear and well-supported — for clinicians, the board, and patients.
From blueprint to operational AI management
The outcomes our clients reach when governance moves out of the binder and into the workflow.
Days
not months, to stand up an operational governance program
One
inventory for every AI tool — imaging, signal, and text, vendor and homegrown
Always
inspection-ready, with evidence trails behind every decision
The Stakes
The AI is multiplying. The oversight is not keeping up.
71%
of hospitals already run predictive AI integrated into the EHR
18%
have a mature governance structure and a fully formed AI strategy
4.2%
median share of IT & quality budget allocated to AI governance and safety

Definition
What is AI governance?
AI governance is how a healthcare organization evaluates, approves, and continuously monitors the AI used across administrative and clinical care — so every model stays safe, effective, equitable, and compliant across its full lifecycle. Done well, it gives the people accountable for AI the evidence to act: spanning strategy and selection, policy and SOPs, regulatory alignment (FDA, ISO 42001, state law), and real-world performance.
Real-world activation of FDA-cleared AI
Clearance approves the device; governance activates it safely in your data, workflows, and patient population.
Operationalizes your policy binder
Turns written policies into workflows, controls, and the evidence that proves they are followed.
An evidence-based operational framework
Oversight not just for drift and bias, but for real-world utility and return on every model.
The FORGE™ Workspace
Three studios. One operating platform.
The Asher FORGE™ solutions run on one operating platform: FORGE™. Strategy, governance, and monitoring share one AI inventory and one source of truth — aligned to ISO 42001 & NIST AI RMF.
AI Select
Evidence-based use-case evaluation, on demand. Model the AI opportunities worth pursuing — ROI and clinical fit for your institution, not a generic vendor checklist.

AI Governance
Stand up an operational governance program in days. Co-author policies and SOPs, automate workflows, and prove ISO 42001 compliance — operating inside the workflow.

AI Watch
Independent oversight of every AI in use — continuously, or as a scheduled retrospective audit. Track accuracy, bias, drift, utility, and return.

What governance adds on top of FDA clearance
Beyond clearance: your regulatory obligations
State laws like the Colorado AI Act classify healthcare AI as "high-risk," requiring risk programs, impact assessments, and patient disclosures that FDA approval does not address.
Beyond policies: an operational management system
Documentation is necessary; governance turns it into operational management of healthcare AI across its lifecycle.

Why Asher
We understand what we are governing — because we built, deployed, and sold health AI for 15 years.
Asher's founders spent careers in PACS, medical imaging, and clinical informatics, shipping regulated software where the audit trail was not optional — it was the product. We know the pain points, requirements, and needs of our clients because they were once our own.
110+
years of combined, domain-deep experience
Provider-First
Built for hospital realities, not adapted from another industry.
Evidence-First
Traceability as the deliverable, trusted by design.
