Stuart Karten Brings Design-Centric Perspective to Healthcare Data and Analytics

Karten Design is excited to announce that Stuart Karten was selected to serve on the Data and Analytics Committee for Presbyterian Healthcare Services (PHS), a New Mexico-based statewide healthcare system serving nearly 720,000 members through its network of eight hospitals, 100 clinics, and 700 providers.

With 24/7 video doctor consults, online patient portals, and a fully integrated EMR system, PHS is nationally recognized for its use of cutting-edge technology. Its Data and Analytics Committee, consisting of physicians, data analysts, and hospital administrators, aims to leverage the data collected from these new technologies to improve care and reduce costs at a system-wide level.

Stuart Karten has studied the way providers and patients experience the healthcare system for over thirty years. As PHS’s growing analytics capabilities continue to unveil new pain points and opportunities within its organization, Stuart will offer guidance and support from a design-centric perspective, helping PHS pinpoint solutions that both create impact and resonate with end users.
