CIO Podcast - Episode 119: Improving Through Data and Research with Eric Lee

from CIO Podcast by Healthcare IT Today · host John Lynn

For the 119th episode of the CIO podcast hosted by Healthcare IT Today, we are joined by Eric Lee, MD, Chief Health Information Officer at AltaMed Health Services, to talk about improving with data and research! We kick this episode off with Lee sharing his experience with the KLAS Arch Collaborative. Next, we discuss some of the results Lee saw from the survey. Using that same survey, we then get into what Lee has done or is looking to do based on the results. Then Lee shares a recent successful project he’s worked on at AltaMed, and we dig into what went into the project and what made it a success. We then dive into AI to discuss what we now understand about AI in healthcare and what we are still trying to figure out. Lastly, Lee passes along the best piece of advice he’s been given in his career. Here’s a look at the questions and topics we discuss in this episode: What’s been your experience with the KLAS Arch Collaborative? What are some of the results you saw from the survey?
