Our Story

The Evolution of CIO Consulting, LLC

CIO Consulting was founded in 2011 with the mission of providing interim CIO services and supporting the needs of existing CIOs. Recognizing the demanding nature of the healthcare CIO role, we saw the value in offering a consulting partner who could step in to help lighten the load and provide strategic guidance when needed.
As trusted leaders with extensive expertise in operational and strategic technology management, we have broadened our services to provide valuable insights and guidance to boards, executive teams, technology startups, and more. 

We help organizations effectively navigate the complexities of the modern healthcare digital landscape.  Our experience spans eight premier healthcare organizations, each varying in size and scope. From managing a small team of IT professionals to leading over 500 employees across IT, imaging, clinical engineering, and telecommunications, we have successfully supported critical access hospitals, rural hospitals, community health systems, metropolitan health systems, academic healthcare and many types of outpatient services. This broad experience enables us to offer tailored, strategic solutions that meet the unique needs of each client.
