SPEAKER
 

Tom Graham, CEO, Strategies OTB, Inc.

Thomas Graham’s primary professional focuses are finance, management information systems and process improvement using Lean and Six Sigma strategies, ranging from well established firms to startup consulting. Mr. Graham’s undergraduate and graduate work was completed at Baldwin Wallace College (Ohio).

 

Following time as a Los Angeles Ram, where he was a wide receiver, he found a niche in business strategic planning and development, serving as a consultant to numerous for-profit and not-for-profit businesses covering nine different industries.

 

Since 2000, Mr. Graham has focused on healthcare; specifically, the economics and guideline driven processes of heart attack and chest pain care. He has presented as an invited speaker at major national professional society conferences and symposia. In December 2007 he was the keynote speaker for the South Carolina Hospital Association – Heart Alliance presenting “Organization & Systems Development in the Cardiac Care Process”. He presented “Evidence based Financial Outcomes in Acute Coronary Syndromes”, at the American Academy of Medical Administrators in Orlando in 2004. He presented “Show Me the Money, Chest Pain Center Economics” for the Society of Chest Pain Centers 6th Annual Congress in Chicago in 2004 and 7th Annual Congress in Orlando in 2005. His abstract, “Quality Must Drive Healthcare’s Economic Future: Economics of Heart Attack Care”, was accepted and presented at the 18th Annual American Society for Quality’s Management Conference in Irvine, CA in March 2006.

 

Mr. Graham is presently the Chief Executive Officer of Strategies OTB Inc., a strategic planning company that can quantify, measure, and analyze the link between a hospital’s processes and its financial model.
