His areas of focus during that time were quality informatics, interoperability, and the use of information technology to support care coordination and population health. From 2014-2018, he was the Information Systems lead for NYP’s Medicaid care redesign initiative, DSRIP.Prior to NYP, Dr. Kuperman worked at Partners HealthCare in Boston. There he focused on the design, development, implementation, and evaluation of clinical decision support systems. His pioneering work included development of alerts and reminders in computer physician order entry systems as well as the development of a system to alert physicians for critical laboratory results.
Dr. Kuperman received a BA in Mathematics from Columbia College, an MD from Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and a PhD in Medical Informatics from the University of Utah. He practiced medicine for five years as a general practitioner and emergency room physician before turning full-time to Biomedical Informatics.
