S. Robert Levine, MD is a national leader in efforts to: encourage the wider use of advanced information and communications technologies to engage consumers and improve health care quality and access; increase public contributions to medical research and promote more rapid translation of scientific discoveries into public benefits; and support the reform of our health enterprise in ways which are responsive to the core purpose of improving health, for all.
As co-author of the policy papers “Creating a Health Information Network,” “An ABC Proposal to Modernize Medicare”, “Healthy Aging v. Chronic Illness: Preparing Medicare for the New Health Care Challenge”, and “A Progressive Path Toward Universal Health Coverage” published by the Progressive Policy Institute (www.ppionline.org) and as Chairman of the PPI’s Health Priorities Project, Dr. Levine has helped develop substantive approaches to health care reform, as well as present a compelling vision of the promise of an information age health system.
As a senior volunteer leader of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) – the largest non-profit contributor to diabetes research in the world (>$1 billion 5 yr research budget) -- Dr. Levine has helped the organization adopt a model of goal driven innovation and accountability. His “Path to the Cure” vision led to JDRFs unique “Research Mapping” process (1996) which helped shape their research program to be more responsive to the clinical concerns of people with diabetes while emphasizing support for mission-critical activities which would have the greatest impact on accelerating progress toward a cure. As JDRFs Chairman of Government Relations, Dr. Levine was a recipient of Research!America's 1998 Research Advocacy Award, recognizing his leadership in organizing widespread support for significant increases in federal funding of biomedical research (the “double the NIH” initiative. As the current Chairman of JDRFs Clinical Affairs Working Group, Dr. Levine is working closely with senior management to develop a leading edge clinical development program, one which will help turn promising research into promises for a cure kept at the point-of-care.
Dr. Levine is a founder and Chairman of the Growth Philanthropy Network (www.growthphilanthropy.org) a non-profit enterprise whose purpose is to help top performing social programs expand in order to scale their social impact through a unique marketplace model. He also serves as a senior strategic advisor and CMO of GoMed, an early stage company which holds the US patents for mobile device storage, distribution, and control of personal health information.
Following completion of his undergraduate studies in Human Development and Nutrition at Cornell University (BS, 1975), Dr. Levine attended Loyola-Stritch School of Medicine (Chicago, Ill.), where he graduated summa cum laude, AOA, in 1979. He completed his Internal Medicine and Cardiology training at the Mount Sinai Medical Center, New York City (MSMC) where he later joined the full-time faculty as the founding Director of MSMC’s Cardiac Health and Rehabilitation Program.
