With a career dedicated to advancing healthcare systems and improving access to care, Ora brings a distinctive combination of technical understanding, operational insight, and collaborative leadership to the organizations she serves.
Currently serving as Project Manager of Telemedicine at PM Pediatric Care, Ora plays an important role in supporting the organization’s digital healthcare initiatives and telemedicine operations. Since joining PM Pediatric Care in 2017, she has contributed her expertise in healthcare program management, clinical informatics, and electronic health record strategies to help bridge the gap between healthcare professionals, technology teams, and organizational leadership. Her work requires a sophisticated understanding of the practical challenges associated with implementing technology in clinical environments, where operational efficiency must align with the needs of patients, providers, and administrators. Through cross-functional collaboration and thoughtful project coordination, she helps translate organizational priorities into practical healthcare solutions that support scalable service delivery.
Ora’s professional journey began in clinical research, where she established the foundation for her analytical approach to healthcare management and operational decision-making. From 2007 to 2009, she served as a Clinical Research Coordinator at NYU Hospital for Joint Diseases, gaining valuable experience in research processes, clinical study coordination, and the complexities of healthcare research environments. She subsequently joined Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick, serving as a Clinical Research Coordinator from 2009 to 2012. These formative experiences strengthened her understanding of clinical trials, research administration, and the importance of precision, accountability, and collaboration in healthcare. Working within established medical institutions also provided her with firsthand exposure to the relationships between clinical practice, scientific research, and organizational processes.
Building upon this clinical research foundation, Ora transitioned into research administration and grants management at BRANY, where she served from 2012 to 2017. Beginning as a Grants Specialist and advancing to Director of Grants, she expanded her professional capabilities in budgeting, grants administration, financial oversight, and organizational coordination. This progression demonstrated her ability to assume increasing responsibility while developing a broader understanding of the administrative and financial structures that support healthcare research. Her experience at BRANY complemented her clinical background by strengthening her perspective on resource management, operational accountability, and the importance of aligning financial processes with institutional objectives. Together, these experiences prepared her to approach healthcare leadership with both analytical discipline and a comprehensive understanding of organizational operations.
A defining dimension of Ora’s career has been her involvement in the evolution of telemedicine and digital healthcare delivery. As virtual care has become an increasingly important component of modern healthcare, she has worked within environments requiring the integration of technology, clinical workflows, and patient-centered services. Her experience has given her insight into the distinction between introducing digital healthcare tools and successfully embedding those tools into established clinical systems. She recognizes that effective healthcare innovation requires more than technological capability; it demands thoughtful implementation, stakeholder alignment, operational readiness, and an understanding of how healthcare professionals and patients interact with new models of care. This perspective informs her approach to project management and her ability to connect strategic objectives with practical execution.
Ora’s expertise and industry perspective have also been reflected in her participation in prominent healthcare speaking engagements. In 2024, she presented at the Rural and Urgent Care Clinics Virtual Summit led by TytoCare, delivering a presentation titled “Telehealth is Easy. Hybrid is Hard.” The presentation addressed the complexities of integrating virtual and in-person healthcare models, a challenge facing organizations seeking to modernize service delivery while maintaining effective clinical operations. Her participation highlighted her understanding of the operational realities behind digital health transformation and her ability to communicate those challenges to a broader professional audience. By contributing to discussions surrounding hybrid care, Ora has demonstrated her commitment to sharing practical insights that can inform the healthcare industry’s continued evolution.
Her involvement in healthcare thought leadership also includes participation in the Teladoc Health Forum 2022, where she contributed to the spotlight panel “The Impact of Virtual Care in Pediatrics.” The discussion explored how virtual healthcare enables pediatric providers to reach children and families in their communities while expanding access to services. Panel topics included care efficiencies, organizational growth opportunities, implementation lessons, and successful approaches to pediatric virtual care. Ora’s participation reflected her experience at the intersection of pediatric healthcare and telemedicine, as well as her ability to engage in meaningful conversations about the opportunities and challenges associated with new models of care. These speaking engagements have provided opportunities for her to contribute to broader industry dialogue while sharing perspectives informed by her professional experience.
In addition to her leadership and speaking experience, Ora has contributed to published healthcare research. She was a co-author of “Epidemiology of 30,000 Pediatric Urgent Care Telemedicine Visits in the Era of COVID-19,” published in Telemedicine and e-Health in October 2022. The publication examined pediatric urgent care telemedicine visits during a period of significant change in healthcare delivery. Her contribution to this research reinforces the breadth of her professional background, connecting her early experience in clinical research with her more recent involvement in virtual healthcare. It also reflects her appreciation for evidence-based decision-making and the value of research in understanding how emerging healthcare delivery models serve patients and healthcare organizations.
Ora’s academic background further strengthens her multidisciplinary approach to leadership. She earned a Master of Public Health in Health Systems and Policy from Rutgers University’s Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy, complementing her bachelor’s degree from Yeshiva University. Her graduate education provides a valuable foundation for understanding healthcare systems, organizational policy, and the broader structures that influence healthcare delivery. Combined with her professional experience, this academic preparation enables her to consider healthcare challenges from clinical, operational, administrative, and systems-level perspectives. Her ability to connect these disciplines is particularly relevant in environments where organizations must balance innovation, financial responsibility, service quality, and long-term sustainability.
Beyond her professional career, Ora has demonstrated a commitment to community engagement and organizational service through seven years of board involvement at her children’s private school. This experience provided her with exposure to organizational governance and the responsibilities associated with serving a mission-driven institution. Her board service reflects a willingness to contribute her time and perspective to causes that extend beyond her professional responsibilities. It also complements her healthcare leadership experience by broadening her understanding of how organizations can benefit from thoughtful participation, diverse viewpoints, and a shared commitment to institutional success. This combination of professional expertise and community involvement forms an important part of her approach to future board and advisory opportunities.
As she considers the next chapter of her professional and leadership journey, Ora is motivated by a desire to continue learning, embrace new challenges, and make meaningful contributions to organizations and communities. With her children now older, she has greater flexibility to pursue opportunities that allow her to apply her experience in new settings while broadening her own perspective. Although healthcare remains her primary area of interest, she is open to board and advisory roles across industries and organizations of varying sizes. Her background in healthcare operations, technology implementation, research, budgeting, and stakeholder engagement offers a versatile foundation for participating in strategic discussions and supporting organizational development.
One of Ora’s distinguishing professional strengths is her ability to bridge gaps between individuals and teams with different areas of expertise, responsibilities, and priorities. Throughout her career, she has worked with clinicians, administrators, technical professionals, and executive leadership, developing the communication skills necessary to connect complex information with practical organizational needs. Her fluency in English and Hebrew adds another dimension to her interpersonal capabilities. Rather than viewing healthcare challenges solely through a clinical or technological lens, she approaches them with an appreciation for the people, processes, and resources necessary to achieve sustainable results. This balanced perspective supports her effectiveness in collaborative environments and positions her to contribute constructively to boardroom conversations.
Outside her professional responsibilities, Ora maintains a personal interest in health and fitness, reflecting the importance she places on well-being and personal development. Her desire to remain engaged, challenge herself intellectually, and give back to others demonstrates a broader commitment to purposeful growth. Whether contributing to healthcare innovation, participating in professional discussions, supporting community governance, or exploring new leadership opportunities, she brings curiosity, dedication, and a willingness to learn from different perspectives. These values have helped shape a career characterized by professional progression, multidisciplinary experience, and meaningful engagement with the evolving healthcare landscape.
