The Toughest Questions in Health Care: "How Do We Use and Protect Patient Data?" with Dr. Ed Ewen and Anahi Santiago

For the Love of Health

Health care providers have a lot of information on their patients – medical histories, demographics, identity and financial data. That means those providers have a responsibility to appropriately use and protect patient data.
In the second installment of our year-long series, “The Toughest Questions in Health Care,” Dr. Ed Ewen, Director of Clinical Data and Analytics for ChristianaCare, and ChristianaCare’s Chief Information Security Officer Anahi Santiago help answer the question, “How do we use and protect patient data?”
We journey through the evolution of collecting patient data and examine how health systems use data to improve individual and community care. And we consider the complexity and scope of the challenge of thwarting cybercriminals, especially as more care moves outside the digital safety of the hospital or doctor’s office.

Dr. Edward Ewen is Director of Clinical Data and Analytics for ChristianaCare. He leads the organization’s enterprise information management program and is responsible for coordinating and setting strategy for its data warehousing, data governance, and business analytics activities. He has over 25 years’ experience in health care data warehousing and analytics.
Anahi Santiago is Chief Information Security Officer at ChristianaCare and one of the nation's foremost cybersecurity experts. She has overall responsibility for the organization’s information security program and strategic direction. Winner of the prestigious Routhy Award, Santiago has extensive experience in areas of cybersecurity, privacy, regulatory compliance, program management and infrastructure services.
