A single error in a medical record can change a child’s life.

Theresa Meadows has spent her career making sure that doesn’t happen.

In this episode, Jess Carter talks with Theresa, who recently transitioned from CIO at Cook Children’s Health Care System to a new role at symplr. Theresa recalls her unlikely path from transplant nurse to technology leader and shares how those dual perspectives influenced the way she thinks about data, trust, and patient care.

Their conversation touches on the complexity of pediatric records, the challenges of moving entire hospitals onto electronic systems, and the opportunities she sees for AI to ease the burden on clinicians. Woven through it all are the leadership lessons Theresa carried from the bedside to the boardroom, and now into her work guiding the next generation of healthcare innovation.

Why pediatric hospitals face different data challenges than adult care facilities
How electronic health record conversions can affect patient safety
What healthcare leaders should prioritize in their first 90 days in a new role
