Episode Description

September 17, 2026: Jennifer Jones (former system CNIO and VP, Integris Health), Kay Burke (VP and CNIO, UCSF Health), and Rachael Hill (CNIO and Director of Clinical Systems, North Mississippi Health Services) sit down with Sarah Richardson. What changes when clinical informatics helps shape enterprise strategy from the beginning, not after the technology is already chosen. Jennifer's IV pump work cut adverse infusion events 56%, returned 2,000 nursing hours, and avoided about $500,000 in harm cost.
