John Halamka is a medical doctor (his specialty is emergency medicine), but he has spent his career focused on bringing technology to the medical world. As chief information officer at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Halamka is responsible for clinical, financial, administrative and academic information technology for one of the world's leading hospitals. In an interview, Halamka explains what his five primary digital strategies are, how he deals with the challenge of finding good talent in a nonprofit world and why he found Google Glass intriguing but not ready for prime time. The nature of what the CIO does today is more about influence and organization, Halamka says. His job is to help coordinate the integration of digital technologies across the dozens of medical locations and, increasingly, right into patients' homes. And he does it in an industry of intensely, if understandably, tight regulation.
