Episode description

In this week’s 30th Anniversary Podcast episode, Russ Branzell chats with Ed Kopetsky. Ed is CHIME’s 1998 Board Chair, SVP & CIO, Stanford Medicine Children’s Health, a founding Member of CHIME, and winner of the 2018 CHIME CIO of the Year award.

From the very first CHIME meeting ever where the focus was a pivotal shift toward patient experience to improving provider/vendor relationships and a commitment to “service leadership”, Ed shares his CHIME journey. Ed believes that with mentorship, “what goes around comes around”. “Learn, share, and give to others, and it all comes back.”

Ed is a strong supporter of the Opioid Task Force, which he helped pioneer after his son lost a battle with opioid addiction. Tune in to benefit from Ed’s many nuggets of wisdom and his vast experience in health IT.
