ANN ARBOR, MI, Aug. 22, 2018 – Daniel Barchi, senior vice president and CIO of NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, will share how one of the nation’s largest healthcare providers advances healthcare using IT during the annual AEHIA/AEHIS/AEHIT Fall Summit in San Diego. Barchi, a dynamic speaker renowned for the successful implementation of innovative technologies in healthcare systems, will provide the opening keynote address on Oct. 31. Sanjay Gupta, M.D., senior medical correspondent for CNN, will give the closing keynote on Nov. 2.
The second annual Fall Summit will bring together chief applications officers, chief information security officers, chief technology officers and other top-ranking senior healthcare IT professionals in an educational and networking event curated to meet the rapidly changing demands in healthcare. The summit, which is scheduled for Oct. 31-Nov. 2 at the Omni San Diego Hotel, is open to non-members as well as the three associations’ more than 2,000 members.
Barchi leads 1,000 informatics and technology specialists who deliver the tools and data that physicians and nurses use to provide acute care and manage population health at NewYork-Presbyterian. They also serve NewYork-Presbyterian’s partner medical schools, Weill Cornell Medicine and Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons. Barchi and his team have played critical roles in the rollout of NewYork-Presbyterian’s telehealth program and other digital health initiatives.
He previously led healthcare technology as CIO at Yale New Haven Health System and Yale School of Medicine and earlier as CIO of the Carilion Health System. He was president of the Carilion Biomedical Institute and director of technology for MCI WorldCom. He graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md., and began his career as a U.S. Naval officer. He was awarded the Navy Commendation Medal for leadership and the Southeast Asia Service Medal for Iraq operations in the Red Sea.
Gupta is the multiple Emmy award-winning chief medical correspondent for CNN and host of CNN’s “Vital Signs.” A practicing neurosurgeon, he regularly reports on natural disasters and humanitarian crises around the world. He has also covered a wide range of health topics – including disease outbreaks, the opioid crisis and medical marijuana – since joining CNN in 2001. He will discuss how he balances his two careers, medicine and media.
