SabiaMed Chairman of the Board and CEO Francisco H. Recio in Caribbean Business’s Executive Profile. |
 Since 1987, the Rensselaer Alumni Association
(RAA) Fellows Award honors those
alumni or nonalumni of Rensselaer who, by
their achievements in a chosen profession or
endeavor or by their service to the Institute,
have set an example for Rensselaer men and
women to emulate. In 1998, Recio was recipient
of this prestigious recognition. To date, 113
RAA Fellows Awards have been named.Among his several professional engagements before joining SabiaMed in 2004, Recio is particularly proud of the valuable experience gained while working for KPMG from1976 through 1992. “After being elected partner in 1997, I was in charge of Florida and Latin America consulting,” Recio commented. “I was also the chairman of the Worldwide Operations Management Practice Committee, and member of the Management Consulting Practice Committee (KPMG’s board that oversees the management consulting practice in the world). Recio is married to Irene Canosa. They have three children: Irene, 36; Frank, 33; and Ana, 28. Recio feels that his biggest blessing is his family, and his greatest gift has been his 38 year marriage to a dedicated wife that knew how to raise their three kids to become solid, responsible, well-balanced individuals. An avid golfer, Recio and his son play together and won the father/son tournament at his local club seven years ago. A fierce competitor, he plans to repeat the feat sometime in the future. “Our expert team of close to 100 healthcare, business, and IT specialists serves as the core for concept design and product development,” noted Recio. “They are also our primary source for communicating field experience, information access needs, and customer feedback. Over the past years, the company has registered a meteoric revenue growth, from $5 million in 2004 up to $10 million in 2005, with $20 million projected for 2006. The top executive’s vision for SabiaMed goes far beyond the geographical boundaries of the company’s origins in Puerto Rico. In addition to the Latin America-market expansion, he is confident ClinNext’s suite of unique features and its approach to addressing the needs of the industry, particularly those of service providers, will set the company apart within the highly competitive healthcare information technology market. SabiaMed customers can accomplish results that would be impossible with many other systems currently in the marketplace, he said, explaining that its products cover all facets of the health-care spectrum, from primary to continuing-care management. Information is integrated both horizontally across care facilities and vertically among the physicians orchestrating care, the nurses delivering care, and the clinical departments supporting this care. With clinical and financial information tightly coupled so that health-care organizations can operate more efficiently, SabiaMed provides an unparalleled value, while delivering unmatched functionality, workflow integration, and ease-of-use. Aside from software developers, the company has a team of consultants that implement and train customer personnel to operate SabiaMed healthcare information-technology programs. SabiaMed’s professional services provide ongoing support to its customers in all areas, including operational and regulatory compliance updates as they may apply. <<previous |
