Chief Revenue Officer Streamline Healthcare Solutions

Last Reviewed: September 27, 2026

Executive Summary

Sam Pettijohn is Chief Revenue Officer of Streamline Healthcare Solutions, the Oak Brook, Illinois company behind the SmartCare electronic health record for behavioral health and human services providers. He is accountable for its go-to-market strategies, market expansion and the alignment between the company and its current and prospective clients. He came to Streamline after 25 years at Cerner Corporation, now Oracle Health, where he built the for-profit hospital segment into what Streamline calls Cerner’s most successful business unit and led the team that won both the Department of Defense and Department of Veterans Affairs contracts. That puts a seller of some of the largest health IT contracts ever awarded in charge of revenue at a specialist behavioral health software company.

Professional Journey

Pettijohn graduated from the University of Texas and spent the next 25 years at Cerner Corporation, the health information technology company now known as Oracle Health. Streamline’s account of that period singles out two things. He built Cerner’s for-profit hospital segment into its most successful business unit, and he led the team that secured both the Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs contracts.

He then joined Streamline Healthcare Solutions as Chief Revenue Officer. Streamline was founded in 2003 by David Ryland and Javed Husain and builds SmartCare, an electronic health record and practice management platform designed for behavioral health and human services organizations rather than for acute-care hospitals. He was already in the role when the company announced Navid Asgari as its new CEO in March 2024. In the job he is accountable for Streamline’s go-to-market strategies, for market expansion, and for building closer alignment with the company’s current and prospective clients.

He lives in Dallas, Texas.
