FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Marketing Executive Susan Morgan joins Spring Medical Systems
April 19, 2010 - Houston, Texas—Today, Spring Medical Systems announced the addition of Susan Morgan as Chief Marketer to drive marketing efforts of this leading electronic health records (EHR) software solutions company.
“With the advent of billions of dollars funded through ARRA (American Recovery and Reinvestment Act) for direct
incentives to physicians and hospitals, we believe that 2010 will include aggressive implementations of new health
information technology to transform the healthcare industry,” said Jack Smyth, CEO and President. “We felt that the
addition of Susan’s consistent success in areas such as product marketing and technology startups would aid our
continuing growth. Throughout her entire career, she has shown the leadership and team building skills that are in line
with our goal of accelerating our growth. Susan, with the additional support of her peer CMOs at Chief Outsiders, will no
doubt be an incredible asset to our team.”
Spring Medical Systems will be introducing five new products in the next few months. Two of those products,
SpringCharts Patient Portal and SpringCharts Practice Optimizer will add significant functionality to SpringCharts EHR.
SpringCharts Patient Portal is a secure, online, easy-to-use tool that helps patients compile, manage and share medical
records. It also allows the patient and the practice to communicate medical information, appointments and demographic updates in a secure environment. SpringCharts Practice Optimizer monitors practice quality metrics, non-compliance of
prescribed care plans and facilitation of compliance with P4P, PQRI and other reporting programs. Both mitigate risk by
using an audit trail of notifications and reminders to patients to encourage follow through and adherence to care plans.
Morgan comes to Spring Medical as part of Chief Outsiders, a company that outsources the Chief Marketing Officer role
for growth and mid-size companies. Susan has previously held positions including Vice President of Marketing and
Communications at Cap Gemini, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Paradigm where she has been responsible for
$20+ million budgets, managing departments of over 100 and has been credited with consistently increasing sales and
profits. Morgan has also been a managing member of six high-tech startups and has over 25 years experience in
international marketing, product marketing, research, strategy, and sales. She received her BSEE from the University of
Florida and an MBA from the University of Louisiana-Lafayette.
