Background

About Kate Heise

I bridge the bedside and the command center. As a nurse practitioner and former Air Force IT specialist, I’ve spent the past decade transforming how we deliver critical care using real-time data, Epic builds and predictive tools to help the team see what’s coming and act. I currently lead a team of data analysts supporting Mayo Clinic’s critical care practice, collaborating closely with hospital innovation leaders to shape the future of care delivery in a constantly evolving environment. My work focuses on identifying gaps, building practical tools and creating scalable solutions that make care safer, smarter and more efficient. Highlights include founding RAPID (a frontline staff led innovation engine now scaled across the hospital), automating the pediatric severity scoring system (PIM3) within Epic and building tools like CEDAR the predict patient deterioration and support real-time clinical decisions.
