At the end of the day, IT is a foundation. No one can do anything without the technology today. You can't take care of patients without understanding it or leveraging it. And that's really why the Chief Nursing Information Officer has become such an important role.

We define innovation as a fundamentally different approach to solving a problem that has quantifiable outcomes. And we all know that we have plenty of problems in healthcare. It's the hardest job I’ve ever had because what we're trying to do is make a meaningful difference in cost or quality. And it’s very challenging.

The perfect storm for innovation is when government, academia and industry align. And there's a sense of urgency to change. This COVID new normal era has seen the rise of digital health and investment like we've never seen before in the life sciences. This isn't just a perfect storm for innovation. This is a once in two lifetimes opportunity to change.
