JOB SUMMARY

The KPMF CMIO is an executive position reporting to the KPMF Chief Clinical Officer that develops and executes an informatics strategy on behalf of KP Medical Foundation Markets, with an advisory role for Risant. The strategy uses informatics and technology to turn discrete data into insight for patients, physicians/providers at the point of care, and patient populations. This insight should lead to outcomes that improve member service and increase value (quality and affordability), serving as a framework for value-based care and spreading best practices throughout KP and Risant. These technologies may impact the efficiency and workflows of our physicians negatively and so the CMIO must also mitigate the negative impact on physician career and efficiencies and maximize where Health IT can be part of the solution for efficiency and physician wellness.
