healthsystemCIO.com is the sole online-only publication dedicated to exclusively and comprehensively serving the information needs of healthcare CIOs.
Although there is “a bell curve of technology adoption exhibited among clinicians” at most health systems – with different levels of experience and familiarity that need to be considered – there is a universal approach that can be applied, according to CMIO CT Lin.
“The EHR is like the nervous system of the healthcare system,” said David Kaelber, MD, CMIO at MetroHealth System, during a recent interview. “With everything that our board or CEO wants us to do better, there’s a role for my team in doing that.”
“When you’re a physician and you’re put into a leadership role, there’s not a great training pathway for that,” says Dirk Stanley. In this interview, he talks about why he started a blog, the CMIO’s role as translator, and the moment his career changed.
For providers, there’s nothing more frustrating than encountering “a missing step” while caring for a patient, says Dirk Stanley, MD, CMIO at UConn Health. In this interview, he talks about how creating Blueprints Before Build can prevent it from happening.
As health systems navigate the challenges of Covid while trying to drive digital transformation, the role CNIOs and CMIOs play in boosting adoption and managing change is only increasing, according to our panelists in a recent webinar.
