Sarah Kramer
Sarah Kramer's career in health care, government and the private sector
have been dedicated to creating effective information management strategies
and systems to advance evidence-based decision-making - from the bedside
to the Cabinet table.
As Vice President and CIO at Cancer Care Ontario (CCO), Sarah has
focused on implementing CCO's ambitious Information Management
Strategy which will lay the groundwork to support the transformation
of the organization from a radiation therapy care provider to a
purveyor of evidence-based system advice, performance measurement and
monitoring. Recently, Sarah has taken on a leadership role in developing
and implementing the information architecture to support for the Ministry
of Health and Long Term Care's Access to Services and Wait Times Strategy,
lead by Dr. Alan Hudson.
Prior to joining CCO, Sarah was the CIO for
the Department of Health in Nova Scotia, and has held a number of
senior positions in Ontario s health care, government and private
sectors.
