Eight months after eHealth Ontario CEO Sarah Kramer left embroiled in a spending scandal, the organization responsible for the province’s electronic health records plan is finally ready to permanently fill her position.
The organization has nominated former Dundee Bank of Canada chief Greg Reed for the CEO position. His official appointment is still subject to a review by the Standing Committee on Government Agencies, but no timetable has yet been set.
A spokesperson for eHealth Ontario said Reed would not be available for comment until he is officially appointed.
In addition to his time in the financial services sector, Reed spent roughly 20 years at global management consulting firm McKinsey & Co., where he served in director, principal and associate positions.
Reed’s experience in the financial sector also includes a stint as president and CEO of Altamira Investment Services and as a senior executive of the National Bank of Canada. He holds a computer sciences degree from the University of Toronto and an MBA from Harvard Business School.
