Summary
Dr. Rob Bart is the Chief Medical Information Officer at UPMC, where he is leading one of the largest EHR consolidations in the country- bringing the entire health system onto a single Epic instance. A pediatric intensivist by training, Rob has been a pioneer in the CMIO role for more than two decades, with prior leadership at Cerner and Los Angeles County Department of Health Services. In this episode of DGTL Voices, Rob tells Ed about growing up in Hawaii (his high school classmate happened to become President of the United States), the conversation that pulled him from research into medicine, why clinicians need to keep practicing to keep their credibility, and his case against the endless creation of new C-suite titles every time technology evolves. Plus: the trust framework he uses with his team, why recovering from a wrong decision matters more than being right the first time, and how bike rides through a cemetery near his home keep him grounded. 🔗 https://marxadvisory.com
