The Pop Health Learning Center (“Learning Center”) is a California Social Purpose Corporation (SPC) committed to transforming how health care is delivered and experienced across California, with a focus on low-income communities. Established to prioritize social impact over profit, the organization is grounded in a mission to bring together health care teams, insurers, and policymakers to keep communities healthy through care that works for patients, inspires providers, and lasts.

The Learning Center serves as the Program Office for a statewide Medi‑Cal focused practice initiative, the Equity and Practice Transformation (EPT) program, a $140 million-dollar investment in primary care transformation funded by the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS). The Learning Center also works with several key partners throughout California on aligned programs to build Population Health Management (PHM) capabilities and improve health outcomes for Californians.

We serve as a strategic partner to organizations and institutions committed to advancing health equity, with all efforts grounded in a shared goal: supporting a more coordinated and person‑centered healthcare system that strengthens primary care and advances equitable access across California’s safety net.

The Learning Center is highly invested in making data enabled care a reality in the safety net of California. Primary care practices serving low‑income communities have historically had disparate access to technology, data and innovations like Artificial Intelligence. The Learning Center incorporates data enablement as a foundational element to all practice improvement work. Recently, The Learning Center has advanced its data enablement portfolio by partnering with Kaiser Permanente in the Population Health Management Initiative (PHMI) to scale deployment of the single instance PHMI Innovaccer platform for Community Health Centers and independent practices across the state.

The PHMI platform enables secure, standardized access to clinical, claims, and social needs data to drive whole‑person care coordination across California. Through these initiatives, The Learning Center is building an integrated data ecosystem and advancing scalable solutions that strengthen quality, accountability, and performance improvement statewide.

The Chief Clinical Information Officer (CCIO) provides strategic leadership for The Learning Center’s clinical informatics, data integration, and technology initiatives. This role bridges clinical expertise with technology innovation to ensure The Learning Center’s program‑wide solutions effectively support care transformation, quality improvement, and population health analytics.

The CCIO partners closely with The Learning Center’s executive team, DHCS, health plans, and provider organizations to align clinical, operational, and data strategies that advance equitable outcomes across the Medi‑Cal delivery system. The CCIO also serves as an informatics and technology advisor for a cadre of participating practices, providing guidance on the implementation, use, and continuous improvement of population health management tools built on the Innovaccer platform.

This includes supporting practices in interpreting data, optimizing workflows, and integrating insights into clinical operations to improve care quality, efficiency, and equity.

The CCIO is the accountable executive leading the iterative design and scale of a single‑instance Population Health Management (PHM) platform co‑developed with California community health centers, Innovaccer, and Kaiser Permanente. Additionally, the CCIO oversees ongoing…
