Summa Health Tech Stack
Integrated health system serving Northeast Ohio with hospitals, clinics, and a health plan
Summa Health operates one of Ohio's largest integrated delivery networks—hospitals, community health centers, a health plan, and physician organizations across 5,000+ employees. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward healthcare-specific platforms (Epic, Cerner, athenahealth, Dentrix, MyChart) with Microsoft enterprise infrastructure (SQL Server, Azure, Active Directory). Hiring is almost entirely clinical (healthcare roles dominate at 84% of open positions), with small pockets of security and finance effort—typical of a nonprofit health system in operational mode rather than digital transformation.
