Episode description

Join us as we celebrate our three decades of dedication to digital health leadership with this special edition podcast! For each of the 30 weeks until our Fall Forum, we’ll visit with digital health leaders who have made a very special impact on CHIME, including many of our Board Chairs.

In this episode, Russ chats with CHIME’s 2019 Board Chair, Dr. Shafiq Rab, MD, PhD, MPH, Chief Digital Officer, System CIO and EVP, Tufts Medicine

Rab focuses on the power of CHIME to support and amplify the VOICE of its members. CHIME’s Public Policy Steering Committee has established an influential collective voice to advise federal agencies and policymakers. CHIME also hosts visionary thought leadership events where groups of expert members discuss cutting-edge topics with tech companies in roundtables. Rab emphasizes the transformative influence of the voices that come together through CHIME to inspire each other and educate people around the world.

Rab also highlights the deep friendships formed by CHIME’s many events and activities and the importance of continuing the crucial work of digital transformation. He envisions a healthcare future in which biometrics and genomics allow us to predict and prevent disease to vastly improve patients’ lives.
