CTG HealthCare Solutions Announces Formation of Executive
Services Team
Major Expansion of Strategic Healthcare Consulting Service Mobilizes Group of
Award-Winning Executives
CINCINNATI, Oct. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- CTG HealthCare Solutions, Inc. (CTGHS), a
leading information technology (IT) consulting firm focused exclusively on the
healthcare industry, today announced a major expansion of its management
consulting services with the formation of CTGHS Executive Services.
Under the leadership of newly-appointed Executive Director Ward Keever, the
group will support healthcare providers and payer organizations in strategy
development and clinical and financial solutions. Keever is a former VP and CIO
of the University of Pennsylvania Health System and Christiana Care. He is a
founding trustee and Fellow of College of Healthcare Information Management
Executives (CHIME), a co-founder of the Healthcare Information Systems
Executive Association (HISEA), and a former HIMSS John E. Gall CIO of the Year.
CTGHS Executive Services mobilizes a team of award-winning industry executives
with extensive backgrounds in healthcare leadership in areas that include
strategic and tactical IT planning, clinical transformation, business process
redesign, and financials. They include Lynn Foreman; Charles Jones, P.E.,
C.P.A.; Marsha Parker, R.N.; Barbara Penatzer; Eric Pifer, M.D.; Albert Sinisi;
David Tucker; James Wagner, and Barry Weinstein, C.P.A.
All have held senior executive positions in large healthcare institutions or
systems in the areas of IT, clinical care, operations and finance. They are
industry leaders who collectively have been charter members, past chairs, Board
members, Fellows, and Diplomates of such organizations as CHIME, HISEA, HIMSS,
HFMA, ACHE and the University Healthsystem Consortium. Members are also active
in professional organizations such as AONE, AMDIS, and AICPA. Executive Team
members have been recipients of distinguished industry leadership awards that
include the HIMSS John E. Gall Award, CIO Magazine's CIO 100 CIO award, Who's
Who of Information Technology, and Hospitals Most Wired Award.
"Healthcare organizations struggle to develop a vision and strategy that's not
only realistic and achievable, but capable of earning sponsorship from
executive leadership and clinicians," said Tom Niehaus, CTGHS General Manager
and Senior Vice President. "Even when a strategy is in place, execution can bog
down due to an incomplete understanding of vendor systems and technology
capabilities. Our Executive Services Team offers a unique combination of proven
strategic and tactical experience that ensures not only well-conceived
strategic initiatives, but achievability and affordability."
Ward Keever said, "CTGHS is well known for its broad and proven experience with
implementing most of the industry's healthcare systems. In many years of
working with the firm as a client, I was always highly satisfied with its
services and deliverables. Its ISO9001:2000 quality certification and strong
references provide a solid foundation for the Executive Services offerings. We
have been delighted with the industry's initial response and enthusiasm for our
services. I believe that the extensive pragmatic experience represented by the
members of our team is of significant value to the healthcare industry. We use
a collaborative approach, among our team mates, for each assignment, which
brings added value to our clients."
