Scott MacLean, CIO, Newton-Wellesley Hospital, Partners Healthcare

Working as CIO in one of the most renowned health systems in the country gives Newton-Wellesley Hospital’s Scott Maclean — also a Corporate Director in the overarching Partners HealthCare superstructure — a unique perspective from which to evaluate the HITECH landscape. And though some might think organizations like Partners are ready to meet Stage 1 today, MacLean still has some work to do. To meet the government-implemented requirements, in part shaped by Corporate CIO John Glaser, MacLean is working closely with his core vendors, including Meditech, Siemens and GE. To learn more about his work at Newton-Wellesley, healthsystemCIO.com editor Anthony Guerra recently caught up with the newly elected HIMSS Board member.
