Executive in Residence
The Executive in Residence (EIR) program extends the Institute’s partnership with the business community. An EIR is a distinguished senior executive invited to share their expertise with the Institute on a project of national significance.
The executive is available to Institute staff, key stakeholders and other interested leaders to help support programs and initiatives. The EIR serves as project adviser, convener and lecturer for the Institute. This generous contribution of time and wisdom allows the Institute to expand offerings and improve the quality of service to the e-Health Community.
The Executive in Residence program is truly unique in that it brings a practitioner's perspective to the educational and research experience. Not only are key stakeholders exposed to cutting edge business theory, but they are also updated by seasoned executives who have put that theory into practice as senior managers in major health IT corporations. We are proud to host this program and invite you to learn more about this valuable resource.
Prior Executives in Residence have included Mary Walker from Apptis Corporation who helped co-found and launch the National Health IT Collaborative for Underserved Populations, and Dennis R. Porter from Northrop Grumman Corporation, who worked on the Federal Health Gateway project.
