Mr. Kandrysawtz is senior vice president and chief innovation officer at WellSpan Health, where he leads organizational research and development, enterprise digital health and innovation ventures to modernize care delivery and patient engagement. Under his leadership, WellSpan became the first Epic EHR-enabled organization to earn Epic’s “Five Diamonds” recognition for its patient portal, MyWellSpan. 70% of customers are now highly digitally engaged. He helped unify the system’s public website and patient portal to create a more seamless digital front door, driving increased new account creation within two months of implementation. Mr. Kandrysawtz has advanced digital pathways that expand access and reduce friction, including virtual care expansion during the Covid-19 pandemic, digital access to contraceptives and automated preventive care reminders. He has also led work to enhance clinician productivity using natural-language-powered documentation tools and to advance AI-driven diagnostics and therapeutics through strategic partnerships. WellSpan has also collaborated with Hippocratic AI, including a multilingual, phone-based assistant that has surpassed 1 million autonomous agentic AI interactions to support outreach, procedure readiness and community health needs assessments.
