Clinician's Perspective

As a family physician I have not one but two jobs these days: take great care of my patients and continually improve my practice. I look forward to working with the practice improvement facilitators in the Great Lakes Practice Transformation Network to help me do both of these jobs better. An extra pair of skilled hands will be a welcome addition to our improvement team.John Hickner, MD, MSc Professor and Head, Family Medicine University of Illinois at Chicago

From 2010-2014, Randy led a 30-person team at the PHA-managed Purdue Regional Extension Center (PurdueREC), which operated under a $14 million federal award “to assist the Indiana healthcare community in realizing the promise of Electronic Health Records (EHRs) by facilitating EHR adoption and use.” The PurdueREC assisted more than 3,000 clinicians and 50 hospitals, and secured an estimated $170 million in federal incentives for Indiana healthcare providers as their practices and hospitals adopted EHRs and met federal Meaningful Use objectives.
