healthsystemCIO.com is the sole online-only publication dedicated to exclusively and comprehensively serving the information needs of healthcare CIOs.
In this podcast, Scott MacLean talks about how MedStar is carrying out its post-Covid strategy, the “never-ending battle” to keep systems upgraded and refreshed, and why the digital front door is about so much more than a portal.
By implementing a fluid strategy, rather than a 5-year plan, organizations are able to pivot quickly and reallocate resources based on changing needs, said Bradd Busick, CIO at MultiCare Health System. “That’s the magic in this process.”
As a leader, the one thing you never want to say is, “I can’t do that,” said Jesse Fasolo, CISO at St. Joseph’s Health. In a recent interview, he talked about the importance of a solid infrastructure, why frameworks are critical, and how he has been able to step “two steps ahead.”
The rapid rise of telehealth during the early stages of Covid made an enormous impact for organizations like LVHN with a large rural population, but it wasn’t just about the scale, said CIO Mike Minear in this interview. “It was the richness of how we did it.”
For healthcare CIOs, the “massive change in culture and the massive change in the deployment of technologies” that has occurred during the past 2 years has been (and will continue to be) a game-changer, according to Dr. John Halamka.
