Robert Slepin joins team at Lumeo

KINGSTON, Ont. – Lumeo and its partner organizations across Southeastern Ontario welcomed Robert Slepin (pictured) as executive leader of Lumeo. Robert brings decades of experience leading digital transformation, governance, and healthcare innovation in some of North America’s most complex health systems.

Slepin has previously served as chief digital officer (CDO) and senior VP at SE Health, senior director of digital strategy at UHN, and executive advisor for the Epic Connect Care project, Alberta Health Services.

Lumeo is a health information system shared by six partner organizations to connect people and healthcare teams for high-quality care.

The Partners include:

• Brockville General Hospital
• Kingston Health Sciences Centre
• Lennox and Addington County General Hospital
• Perth & Smiths Falls District Hospital
• Providence Care
• Quinte Health

Since Lumeo went live 21 months ago, the team has laid a strong foundation for regional clinical transformation, supporting six partner organizations while advancing shared digital capabilities and strengthening collaboration across the healthcare system.

The goals of Lumeo are to create:

• One online system for better, faster information sharing
• Secure access to a shared medical record between the six healthcare organizations (33 sites) – for patients and their healthcare providers
• A My Health Record portal enabling patients to access their health information, test results, upcoming appointments and educational resources
• Less use of paper and handwritten notes
• A way for caregivers to review information from appointments

The organization notes that medical records from family doctors are not included in Lumeo.

“As healthcare continues to evolve, success will depend on our ability to harness data, generate actionable information, and thoughtfully integrate emerging technologies,” said Renate Ilse, chief operating officer and EVP at Kingston Health Sciences. “Robert’s leadership experience in enterprise digital transformation, data strategy, and AI-enabled innovation positions Lumeo well for the next chapter. His expertise will help accelerate our efforts to improve clinical workflows, strengthen analytics, enhance decision-making, and prepare for responsible AI integration that benefits patients, providers, and health system partners.”

She added, “Regional partnerships have always been at the heart of Lumeo’s mission. By bringing organizations together around common goals, we are creating a stronger, more connected healthcare system for the communities we serve. I look forward to working with Robert and the entire Lumeo team as we continue this journey and realize the full potential of a shared digital future.”
