About
Hans Oh is currently completing his PhD studies at the University of Toronto in the Department of Health Policy, Management, and Evaluation (eHealth Innovation and Information Management specialization) under the supervision of Dr. Alejandro (Alex) Jadad.
Before beginning his doctoral studies, Hans worked in both the Quality Program and in Management Engineering at the University Health Network in Toronto, Canada. He worked on projects related to quality improvement, benchmarking hospital performance, re-engineering business process es, analyzing CIHI weighted-case data, and providing strategic analytical support to senior management.
He completed his BSc. (Hon. Health Studies) at the University of Waterloo in the Department of Health Studies & Gerontology participating in the co-operative education program. His work placements exposed him to the different parts of the health care system from addressing national issues at Health Canada (Ottawa), working in community hospitals, and teaching basic health skills to children of family violence.
Hans has interests in evaluation as applied to the use of technology in health care or “eHealth”. Some of his other professional interests include quality improvement, organizational behaviour and management, models of health care delivery, communications theory, and complex systems theory.
Hans Oh’s eHealth Blog is a way of getting ehealth information out to people (either regular people or health care professionals). The goal of this blog is to educate and challenge people to think about some of the choices we all make regarding the use of technology in health care.
Hans also maintains a personal website at http://hansoh.com. You can contact him at hans [at] hansoh.com
