The Office of Healthcare Compliance & Privacy (OHCP) welcomes both Hillary Barigye and Joelle McCarthy to our team.

In July, Hillary joined our team as an Administrative Program Coordinator. With five years of experience working in academic medical centers providing program support to various departments, most recently in the UConn Health Department of Public Health Sciences, Hillary brings knowledge, skill, and an eager enthusiasm for building processes and standards. In his new role, Hillary provides project support, data analytics, and reporting coordination for the OHCP, and we thank Hillary for his innovative, early, and meaningful contributions to improving our office’s communication, project management, and technical platforms.

This month, Joelle joined our team of Assistant Privacy Officers. Joelle’s previous experience working in healthcare involved Privacy Officer and Policy Writer roles, as well as contributions to the development of an enterprise-wide compliance program for privacy at the corporate headquarters for military medicine. We look forward to Joelle’s expertise contributing to the OHCP’s ongoing collaborative evolution of privacy elements in our program.

Please join us in welcoming Hillary and Joelle and wishing them success in their new roles at UConn Health.
