Freeman Health System Names Dr. Thomas Glodek CMIO

Freeman Health System in Joplin, Mo., has named Thomas Glodek, MD, the organization's new CMIO.

Previously, Dr. Glodek was the founder and CEO of Physician Advisory Services Group, a physician-led consulting firm that assisted providers with health IT implementations. He also founded Medical Software Solutions, a hardware, software and training services vendor. Before his consulting career, Dr. Glodek was a practicing physician in Chicago.

"I loved being in clinical practice. I loved technology," said Dr. Glodek in a news release. "As I transitioned out of clinical practice, I began to appreciate the fact that as a physician leader in advisory services and as a CMIO, I could have a very significant impact beyond my ability as an individual provider. It occurred to me that I could be an advocate for clinical care providers in a way I could never do on my own."
