Hi, I run a Healthcare company in India. We are planning to expand our horizons to providing EHR services to our patients. I now have to hire a CTO who can run a team to build world class EHR. What are the qualification and skills should i be looking for in that person to ensure a good knowledge of EHR / FHIR?

Are you building from scratch or are you planning on implementing an existing system with customization?
Fahad Khan (Sep 16 2020 at 14:42):
@David Pyke We will be building from scratch. Mechanism where doctors and patients can store their health data. In a user friendly manner.

You'll need someone with an understanding of software development life cycle, clinical workflows and interoperability standards. Likely someone with CMIO experience and an interoperability background. Good luck!

@David Pyke That will help. Thankyou!

Also someone who understands that what users say they want - and what they actually want - isn't necessarily the same. As well, someone who can oversee the balancing of conflicting requirements from different sets of users as well as regulatory requirements.

@Lloyd McKenzie great advice. Thankyou
