CMIO Podcast ·

2021/08/10

Al was a previous guest on the show and he did such a great job in May of 2020 that I brought him back for the sequel. Al is now 1 year into his CMIO role at Nuvance Health and in this episode we discuss what that year has been like, his influence within the C-Suite, and the impact he is having on the care in his community. I know you will like the work he is doing with virtual scribes and the digital front door too.

Assessing IT Culture with Adam Tallinger

CMIO Podcast ·

2020/12/22

IT culture is a unique beast, especially in healthcare where there is such a focus on safety. "Go slow and say no" seems to be a common mantra and can create a lot of tension between operations and IT. Adam has a ton of experience with assessing and changing culture as a healthcare IT consultant. He and I discuss changing IT culture, treating IT more like a consultancy, partnering with operations, and having transparency around resources and projects.

Interview with Ori Lotan

CMIO Podcast ·

2020/09/19

Ori is a CMIO with a ton of experience. His recent blog post about training physicians really resonated with me. Train the workflow, not the functionality. Build muscle memory. Allow providers to listen to the material at home and then let them practice. Provide as real a scenario as possible.

CMIO News to Know for the Week of Sept 14

CMIO Podcast ·

2020/09/14

This week I cover 2 stories about health insurers pushing us more towards value than volume. Humana launched 2 new bundled payments; one for CABG and another for shoulder replacement. United Health Group CEO discusses how the COVID pandemic is putting more pressure on primary care to switch to at risk contracts rather than fee for service, but also highlights the difficulties. CMIOs should be aware of the technology challenges these models bring to their clinicians. I also cover the INOVA breach

Michael has a unique role in healthcare. He helps startups connect with health systems to solve the most pressing problems facing the system.

Taking Over a New Team

CMIO Podcast ·

2020/09/04

Bill Russell and I discuss the first 90 days of taking over a new team. A quote from Bill: "Our problem in Health IT is we consider it a good day if nothing went down and we got our work done. The reality is every day that nothing went down , and you got was all your work done, you fell one day behind because at the end of the day, the whole world is changing but you're standing still."

CMIO News to Know for the Week of August 24th

CMIO Podcast ·

2020/08/24

This week I cover the letter from AHA to the HHS about keeping telehealth going. We seem to be losing momentum, but we are not out of this pandemic yet and there are certainly benefits beyond COVID-19. I also cover a new tool that normalizes the local COVID-19 lab test names we all use to standard LOINC codes. A friend and fellow CMIO Dr. Dirk Stanley covered the challenges we all face (and created) with finding if the patient has COVID-19 when looking in the EHR in his June 2020 blog post which

"Why does my computer lock at 8 minutes" and "How come I can't use the VPN to connect to the hospital" are questions I know you get too. So I found a CIO to help me answer them. Dave Lehr is the CIO for Lumenis Healthcare in Maryland and he jumps into the hot seat to take on these questions. Practical advice on IT security and HIPAA protections from Dave that you can put to use right now.

2020/08/18

This week I cover the FANTASTIC news that CMS is delaying the penalty phase of the PAMA law that requires providers to consult with clinical decision support before ordering advanced imaging tests. The delay is for another year; perhaps someone will wake up and kill this awful thing before it drains more money from the system.I also cover an interesting article about the strain on primary care caused by COVID and then a different article about how Duke is partnering with One Medical for primary

2020/08/15

Craig is now a CMO at Nordic, but has significant experience as a CMIO and with informatics. He has his own blog and I picked a few posts to dive in a little deeper on those topics. We cover "Leading the Curated Life", a post about delivering what we know is right and NOT always exactly what the doc asked for. Then we discussed "Healthcare IT Guiding Principles". As CMIOs we can have a significant impact on the workflows so a provider is doing the work that only they can do. The final blog post

2020/08/10

This week I cover how UCHealth automated prior auth processes and saved a ton of money; we should all be looking at these technologies to reduce the cost of manual data entry in healthcare. I also cover the difficulties of installing Cerner in the VA, Cerner and Xealth connecting for improved patient experience, and telehealth difficulties for 38% of those over 65. Those stories and more in this week's CMIO News to Know.

CMIO News to Know for the Week of August 3rd

CMIO Podcast ·

2020/08/03

This week I cover a study from JAMIA about the completeness of problem lists; good info for you to compare how your system does versus what they found in the study for completeness and duplicates. The House approved a bill that moves us one step closer to having a unique patient identifier. Inbasket messages cause burnout and none of our EHR tools for efficiency work. Wait - that is not the real takeaway from the story about the JAMIA study on inbasket messages and burnout, but it does raise some

The Digital Front Door is an area typically covered by the chief marketing officer or perhaps a CTO or CDO, but I think there is plenty for a CMIO to be involved with in this area as well. In this episode, I interview a clear expert in the field. Paddy is well published in the field of digital transformation and shares some of his insights about what a CMIO needs to know about the Digital Front Door.

CMIO News to Know for the Week of July 27th

CMIO Podcast ·

2020/07/27

This week I cover the New Yorker piece on how primary care is struggling; worth reading about to help understand what is going on in private practices. Another article I like from this week is Google's announcement about BigQuery Omni, that lets you evaluate data regardless of your cloud vendor. Seems like a good idea to not get locked down in a single cloud vendor relationship. I also covered the Information Blocking Boot Camp from The Sequoia Project, which is helping us prepare for that Nov 2,
