Dr. McNamee has spent years engaged in the pragmatic application of health IT, especially across system and institutional boundaries, and is passionate and committed to seeing the advancement of solutions to address what has historically prevented effective and efficient care across the patient’s personal journey. I’m thrilled to see him elevated into the CMIO role.”
