Dr. Ajit Dhavle is the Vice President of Health IT Audits and Life Science at Quandary Peak Research, where he oversees a team of health informatics experts to provide Strategy, Management, Product Management, Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), Patient Safety, Compliance, and Engineering Consulting and Audit services to both Government and Commercial entities. Previously, Ajit founded Adviva Health, Inc a SaaS prescription medication history reconciliation and analytics platform designed to streamline the medication experience for EHR users. Ajit joined Surescripts in its early years and helped replace the paper prescription and start the first National E-prescribing network. At Surescripts, he last served as the Vice President of Clinical Quality and was responsible for corporate clinical quality, patient safety, and quality research initiatives. While at Surescripts, he also built and ran the first-of-its kind enterprise-wide clinical quality program – a critical component of company’s e-prescribing business solutions – to help prescribers, pharmacies, pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), and healthcare system organizations achieve the three fundamental pillars of e-prescribing: accuracy, efficiency, and patient safety. As a electronic prescribing and medication management subject matter expert, I have delivered numerous invited lectures, seminars, and presentations at health IT conferences and industry events. I have extensively published in peer-reviewed journals on e-prescribing and e-medication management matters, most recently in Health Affairs, American Journal of Managed Care, JAMA Internal Medicine, and the Journal of American Medical Informatics. I have also served as a reviewer for journals and magazines.
