Healthcare IT experience built in the field — not a boardroom.

Omar brings 14+ years of healthcare IT leadership experience spanning community hospitals, critical access facilities, and multi-organization Epic environments. His background includes emergency medical services, clinical operations, and enterprise IT — a rare combination of frontline healthcare perspective and executive-level technology strategy.

He has led analytics modernization initiatives, built production-grade Epic integration pipelines, architected multi-organization data governance frameworks, and guided health systems through complex Epic Community Connect transitions — founding Summit Health IT to bring that depth of experience to community hospitals that need it most, without the enterprise consulting price tag.

Omar holds an MBA, CHCIO, and CDH-E, with CPHIMS in progress. He is an active member of CHIME and HIMSS and participates in Epic UserWeb governance communities.
