What is Informatics?
Biomedical informatics (BMI) is the interdisciplinary field that studies and pursues the effective uses of biomedical data, information, and knowledge for scientific inquiry, problem solving, and decision making, motivated by efforts to improve human health. (www.amia.org)
Health informatics is the science that underlies the academic investigation and practical application of computing and communications technology to healthcare, health education and biomedical research. (http://www.medicine.virginia.edu)
What is Informatics – to me?
Clinical informatics is the field where we attempt to apply principles of information technology, human interface and usability, psychology, change management to the intersection between providers, IT systems and patients in the process of care delivery…
…with the aim of reducing cost, improving efficiency and most importantly clinical outcomes.
• Major focus on the subject domain (in this case, biomedicine) and the unique challenges that arise at the intersection of people, information, and technology

Origins of the CMIO role
- Originally a physician champion role given to a likeable physician to bring along the not so likeable physicians in an IT implementation
- Formal CMIO titles started becoming common in 2002 but probably dates back to 1992
- Tremendous growth and evolution post the HITECH act of 2008
- According to Simplyhired.com, positions for clinical informatics jobs increased 91% from March 2008 to September 2009.
Somewhat Interesting trivia
• 65% still practice medicine (down from 71% in 2005)
• 78% have some previous administrative or management experience
• Medical specialty >> Surgical specialty• 67% want to remain CMIOs and not become CMOs
or CIOs• In 2014 pay increased but satisfaction with job
decreased• In 2005 clinical credibility was paramount now its
leadership skills

Basic reporting structures
- Initially the CMIO role reported to the CIO- Significant trend to now report to the CMO ( reflects
in the change of mindset that the CMIO is an operational/clinical executive not an IT executive per se)
- In 2014 39% reported to CMO and CIO each, only 4% wanted to report to CIO
- Dual reporting relationships are common- Few report directly to CEO

Challenges

Institutional mandate
Federal mandates
Balancing tactical and the strategic
Volume to value based care
The cheerleader paradox
The evolution begins…
CMIO 2.0 / CHIO
• Key member of the strategic leadership for the enterprise
• Driver of quality and safety improvement with the CQO
• Work closely with CFO around strategy and tactics for the journey to value based model
• Shift focus from technology to strategic physician leadership
CMIO 2.0 / CHIO
• Leading change through people, process and how we use information rather than new technology and its implementation
• Reducing fragmentation of informatics resources working in silos
• Career path rather than seasonal job• Data – Knowledge – Intelligence• Practice based evidence

Technology and innovations that excite me
Complex event processing, or CEP, is event processing that combines data from multiple sources to infer events or patterns that suggest more complicated circumstances. The goal of complex event processing is to identify meaningful events and respond to them as quickly as possible.
