We seek to demonstrate the strategic importance of HCIOs in meeting the needs of digital transformation, by managing the emergence and strategic implementation of health care technologies to benefit health care organization performance. We also propose that profession-based stereotypes inhibit HCIOs as they may be viewed as behind-the-scenes technicians rather than strategic leaders.</p><p><strong>Critical theoretical analysis: </strong>Upper echelons (UE) theory demonstrates how HCIOs' unique perspectives gained through education, experience, and the strategic decision-making process also can influence organizational performance.
