Former Senior Vice President and Chief Digital Transformation Officer

Virtua Health

Marlton, NJ

As both a physician and digital transformation leader, Dr. Kapoor has revolutionized patient access and clinical efficiency at Virtua Health by aligning technology with care delivery. Under his leadership, initiatives such as online scheduling and clinical care gap campaigns have led to significant improvements, including a 50% increase in timely primary care access and the detection of hundreds of pre-cancerous and vision-threatening conditions. His team’s deployment of AI tools like augmented response technology and care.ai’s “Smart Care” facility platform has transformed provider workflows and patient experience. Notably, Virtua has seen a 27% improvement in burnout scores and earned recognition in Epic’s national newsletter. Dr. Kapoor also helped introduce the “GI Genius” AI module across Virtua’s five hospitals, elevating colonoscopy precision and reducing cancer risks. Thanks to his combined expertise in the clinical and technological realms, he is also a nationally sought-after speaker. Dr. Kapoor departed from this role in early July 2025.
