Imagine that keys to all information technologies in an outstanding healthcare system in the United States, and everything that entails: everything, from optimization of electronic health documentation systems to supervising the latest progress of artificial intelligence to facilitate in the entire organization, in the field of five -year crafts.
Add the need to conduct all other IT specialists who work for you, doctors and nurses who depend on you-other Ceremonies C who make decisions that affect your work.
We wanted to look closely at the great duties of the newly spent Director for Digital Information Mount Sinai, Lisa S. Stump, which also serves as a dean of IT technology in Mount Sinai’s Icahn School of Medicine.

Focus on digital innovations and transformation
“Góra Sinai has a very successful and long history in digital and even Artificial intelligence, “said Stump. – With my recruit, the healthcare system was really looking for a leader who will continue to set up this trajectory to really focus on digital innovations and transformation, using our technologies and data resources to create work environment, the environment and drive the clinical results, which we think They distinguish the Sinai mountain.
“Being based on data was a really key part of this-like many organizations, we don’t have a lack of data,” she concluded. “We often lack the use of this data to increase significant insights and understand how we operate operationally, clinically, financially and in support of research and educational missions.”
Making organizations more based on data and the employ of these data resources is a key element of what has been brought.
“Specifically for the Sinai mountain, we are at a time when we are introducing significant changes in the general operating model,” she explained. “Historically, we had many dispersed and decentralized services in areas such as finance and human resources – including information technologies. One of the other key goals in my recruitment is the introduction of larger shared services and performance in the way our IT services are supported.
“And then clearly Focus on the involvement of clients and strategies – the customer in the widest sense of the word, from our patients to our employees to our researchers, students and lecturers, we really provide providing technology and data in a way that provides a perfect impression for our interested parties. “
The clinical background provides key information
Stump is designed to serve as a key bridge between clinical, educational and research missions in the healthcare system A Icahn School of Medicine Mount Sinai. This is an extremely comprehensive goal that she said she was ready to take.
“A bit about my origin,” she noted. “I have been a healthcare leader for over 30 years. I started my career as a clinical pharmacist, I learned a lot what technology and data can and should do it as a clinical leader, trying to operate their own clinical company.
“And so, that clinical awareness and focus on health results, about the performance of the workforce, now in combination with proven achievements in the field of complex digital and technological initiatives, allowed me to bring a lot of knowledge and experience the table of this mission,” she added.
Her origin will facilitate her in everything around the fulfillment of clinical, educational and research missions of both organizations.

“My own clinical origin combined with work for 28 years in the leading academic institution Ivy League really gave me this exhibition and experience for challenges and capabilities unique in academic medicine,” she explained. “We train the clinical working force of tomorrow. We support the development and research on up-to-date treatment methods, up-to-date medicines and up-to-date care models, which you will often not find in a non -academic healthcare system.
“My first attempt was listening and learning as much as possible about the Sinai Mount, about our culture, O The successes that led the organization to the place where it is today – but also about the challenges and struggles that the organization faced, “continued.” And then, where we try to go, what goals and strategies go forward. “
From there, Stump’s goal is to adapt digital and data strategies, develop success, facilitate to alleviate today’s challenges and yesterday’s failures, and then facilitate in achieving the current goals of the organization.
“I have only a few months of this new role, so still a lot for a listening trip and a lot of observation – not only talking to people in your offices, but begins to go out, walk and visit the company”, she is excellent.
Strengthening the digital strategy of the organization
All this means a fairly full plate to the stump. But there is more. Mount Sinai also wants it to strengthen the digital strategy of the healthcare system. What does this mean for the up-to-date CDIO and how will this challenge take?
“When I think about a digital strategy, it always starts with an organization’s strategy?” She asked. “Here, Sinai is very clear to enhance care and results for our people, our patients and our world. We accept this very global view on work and research we carry out.
“When it comes to a digital strategy, people have this very high, often the goal around this proposal, values, Using data, artificial intelligence to create these amazing and unique results – she continued. “But we have to start by understanding everything that is based in digital space – starting with the basic IT infrastructure and application layer.”
Applications must be reliable and available to people who need to operate – and must be sheltered.
“I always knock on the desk when I speak safely, because unfortunately we live now in a world where bad actors are trying to access private patients’ data,” noted Stump.
“This digital strategy begins with these basic components,” she added. “We need to look at infrastructure, we need to look at our applications, we need to look at how all our data is archived, and then how we combine all this in care environments that are a pleasure to work for our clinicians and care teams – and where patients can patients can get the medicinal environment and the care they need and deserve it. “
Challenges related to the top of data
Based on the months of talks and observation, Stump focuses on facilitate in business insights. Sinai Góra has a top of data. Placing it in the visualization of data and formats that inform clinical leaders and business about how the organization works, where the possibilities of better doing, and where the healthcare system notes great successes is a challenge.
