Mr. Griffin was previously the Virginia C. and Joseph C. Mello chair and professor at Atlanta-based Georgia Tech’s Stewart School of Industrial and Systems Engineering. While at Georgia Tech, he also co-led the Center for Health Analytics and served as research director for healthcare delivery in the Center for Health and Humanitarian Systems.
“I am very excited about the opportunity that the role with the RCHE director provides,” Mr. Griffin said. “I believe we are uniquely positioned to improve the healthcare delivery and inform health policy through an interdisciplinary approach based on systems engineering principles, data analytics, lean thinking and organizational behavioral management.”
The RCHE, which was created with support from the Regenstrief Foundation, is also a designated patient safety organization by HHS.
