Practical Information for Today's CMIO

Making healthcare better isn't easy, but there are devoted clinicians working in informatics and analytics trying to have an impact at the care delivered in the exam room or at the bedside.  I'm your host, Dr. Mark Weisman, a practicing physician and Chief Medical Information Officer.  On this site you will find podcasts and blog posts to educate and inform about Health IT topics pertinent to clinicians improving healthcare.   If you have a passion to make the lives of our clinicians better through the use of technology, this show is for you.
