With a degree in Accounting, 15+ years in healthcare with hospital and provider group management experience, and 25+ years in technology and automation, I bring a unique perspective on the future of healthcare.I have held diverse titles such as Chief Financial Officer, Director of Business Intelligence, VP of Data Science, and others. Employing the principles of Lean Six Sigma, costing methodology, and continuous process improvement from my time in manufacturing, I've improved financial performance through revenue growth, improved throughput, efficiency gains, and process redesign. I've doubled bottom lines of medical home facilities, built business plans and proformas for $20 million hospital projects, and led business intelligence and population health implementations for $1.6 billion institutions.In my time as CFO of an 80-provider medical group, I played an integral role in standing up a Medicare ACO, going fully capitated with commercial payers, and joining multiple outcomes-based payor arrangements. Seeing the need for risk stratification and actuarial analysis across a patient population, I created and developed a clinical intelligence engine that provides insight to the right care for the right patient at the right time.Now, as the CEO of DignifiHealth, we have built that clinical intelligence engine to be enterprise scalable and we partner with health systems on value-based healthcare, chronic disease management, gap closure and more to create exceptional patient and health system results.My passion is deploying my talent and entrepreneurial curiosity in and around the healthcare and startup space to drive success and remove complexity across the continuum for all stakeholders.When not juggling activities of home life with my wife and three children, I enjoy working out, tinkering with performance cars, and SCCA autocross racing.Healthcare focus areas:Population health, value-based healthcare, outcomes-based healthcare, risk adjustment, clinical coding optimization, chronic care management, ACO, workflow optimization, supplemental data feeds, decreasing administrative burden, healthcare analytics, provider productivity, and more.Technical skills:Python, T-SQL, ETL pipelines, RESTful APIs, EHR data, Postgres, Microsoft Azure, Docker, Github, geospatial analysis, SFTP, DAX, PowerBIEHRs:Meditech, EPIC, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, NextGen, CPSI, Greenway, and more.* I have created successful custom supplemental data feeds from multiple EHRs to Anthem, Humana, Aetna, Optum (United), Medical Mutual, and others.
