@richardtinnelly
Experienced Epic program manager driving complex EMR implementations and teams.
What I'm looking for
I am an Epic program manager with eleven plus years of Epic experience and eight plus years of Epic management experience, specializing in ambulatory, inpatient, Wisdom, reporting (Cogito), cutover, and virtual care implementations. I lead cross-functional teams through full project lifecycles and complex integrations, consistently delivering results on time and aligning project outcomes with operational and strategic goals.
My recent roles include Program Manager and Senior Technical Project Manager positions where I led large-scale Epic transitions, imaging and device integrations, Cloud 9/EHR integrations, and Virtual Care implementations. I have successfully coordinated multi-phased rollouts, managed cutover activities during the pandemic, and integrated third-party reporting tools such as Cogito and MuleSoft.
I focus on transparent communication, stakeholder alignment, and pragmatic process improvement—developing standard toolkits, training programs, and templated workflows to reduce errors and accelerate delivery. I mentor teams, navigate competing priorities, and produce seamless go-lives with minimal issues.
