Andrea has distinguished herself at Silver Cross through her strong, progressive track record over the past 15+ years, including eight years in Information Technology.

She began her career in healthcare as a nurse, holding various roles in critical care, interventional care, and utilization management. Andrea carried her clinical expertise to a new role as Clinical Informatics Analyst in support of Silver Cross Hospital’s Cerner software go-live project, and then moved into roles of greater scope as Manager of Clinical Applications, Director of Clinical Informatics, and most recently Administrative Director of Applications and Performance Management. 

A vital contributor at Silver Cross, Andrea is known for her ability to engage others to create and then effectively execute on key projects. 

Physicians on Silver Cross Hospital’s Medical Staff have expertise in their areas of practice to meet the needs of patients seeking their care. These physicians are independent practitioners on the Medical Staff and are not the agents or employees of Silver Cross Hospital. They treat patients based upon their independent medical judgment and they bill patients separately for their services.
