For the 87th episode of the CIO podcast hosted by Healthcare IT Today, we are joined by Jeffrey Sturman, Senior Vice President and Chief Digital Information Officer at Memorial Healthcare System to talk about their recent wins of the CHIME and KLAS Synergy Award! We kick this episode off with Sturman sharing what it means to him and his organization to have won the KLAS Arch Pinnacle Award focused on EHR User Experience and the CHIME Digital Health Most Wired (9 or above) focused on Digital Health Innovation Award which combined won them the CHIME and KLAS Synergy award. Then we talk about what it took to achieve these awards and why other CIOs should strive to earn them with their own teams. Next, Sturman shares what he heard from clinicians during this process as well as what he did after learning from them. We then talk about how Sturman leverages the EHR and other IT and AI to both meet his current needs and prepare for his future needs. Next, we discuss the other efforts Sturman has been working on that are making an impact. Lastly, we conclude this episode with Sturman sharing the best piece of advice he’s gotten in his career.
