About Gregg

Gregg has been leading healthcare clients through innovative and strategic technology planning processes and large-scale clinical and revenue cycle system implementations for over two decades.

In addition to his Epic experience, Gregg has expertise in the ambulatory environment within healthcare systems and medical group practices of all sizes.

Throughout his career, Gregg has:

• Led strategic planning for Epic Connect programs for multiple midsize and large hospital systems, developing the total cost of ownership, staffing models, subsidy offerings, third-party application review and assessment, market and competitor analysis, and support models, resulting in tighter integration with affiliates, improved referrals, and the growth of geographic service footprints.
• Served as an Epic implementation adviser for a community hospital on the West Coast, delivering project and resource planning; project documentation and reporting; governance management for the inpatient and ambulatory clinical projects; tools for tracking system build, issues and decisions; and go-live/rollout planning for EpicCare Ambulatory EMR for 30 clinics.
• Provided interim management of the inpatient clinical support team for a large West Coast health system, creating the go-live support plan and staffing, including command center and support for the implementation of EpicCare Inpatient EMR Clinical Documentation institutionwide for nursing staff and select physicians, resulting in a successful go-live for over 100 physicians and 500 nursing staff that increased nursing and physician documentation productivity by 22% after only six months.
• Developed a strategic plan and road map for physician connectivity, clinical integration, and meeting the requirements for the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act’s Meaningful Use Stage I reimbursement at a midsize health system in the South, leading to the successful achievement of Meaningful Use Stage I, resulting in improvements to the management of patient data and thus patient care.
