About

I work in healthcare software to help physicians, patients, and the population by equipping them with tools that encode knowledge. Most of my work has been building products for mTuitive, but I also participate in developing open standards or public innovation projects.

Standards

These are some standards I've helped out with.

  • IHE Structured Data Capture (SDC)
  • HL7 Cancer Reporting FHIR IG
  • IHE SDC Electronic Cancer Checklists on FHIR
  • IHE Integrated Reporting Applications (IRA)
  • IHE Interactive Multimedia Report (IMR)

Publications

  • Interactive Multimedia Reporting Technical Considerations: HIMSS-SIIM Collaborative White Paper: Worked with an amazing list of authors to map out the future of a more interactive clinical reporting experience.
  • Customization of the CAP Lung Cancer Biomarker Reporting Template to Facilitate Direct Population of Genomic Test Results by Molecular Laboratories: Working to bring biomarker data directly into the AP reporting experience.
  • Are Meaningful Use Stage 2 certified EHRs ready for interoperability? Findings from the SMART C-CDA Collaborative — JAMIA: Clinical Informatics Article (Vol. 21, No. 6) Honorable mention
