Ward moves to Singapore to boost BOSSnet in ASEAN

Core Medical Solutions (CMS) co-founder and managing director Rohan Ward is relocating with his family to Singapore to oversee the expansion of the BOSSnet clinical information system in the region.

Dr Ward will also act as Allscripts' general manager for south-east Asia. Allscripts bought CMS, which supplies BOSSnet to a number of Victorian health services as well as Fiona Stanley Hospital in Perth, in December 2016.

The move means the local BOSSnet team will take on additional responsibilities, Dr Ward said. This includes a promotion for business development manager Narelle Portakiewicz to director of strategic business development for BOSSnet International and senior development manager Sean Graham to senior manager for business operations and development.

The moves follow Todd Haebich's promotion to general manager for Allscripts ANZ last month. The company plans to open new regional headquarters in about two months to showcase its capabilities in the region.
