So there are a few potentially noteworthy claims here, but I don't think any of them pass the bar for assumed notability, and there's a general lack of GNG.
1. On WP:NACADEMIC - Does being "Associate Dean of Biomedical Informatics at Albany Medical College" pass? I don't believe so - he's not a professor, this was an administrative position.
2. On WP:NPOL - Does being "Deputy National Coordinator and Chief Medical Officer of the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology, a staff division of the United States Department of Health and Human Services" pass? I don't think so. This is an unelected position, and he was only a temporary appointee.
What do we get regarding sources? The article itself has been refbombed with WP:ROUTINE, but google turns up more results...

https://www.timesunion.com/news/article/World-class-care-for-Medicaid-patients-coming-16794327.php Seems to be independent, but isn't SigCov.

https://fortune.com/2021/03/10/covid-vaccine-free-people-not-getting-coronavirus-vaccines-cost-price/ Mentioned in Fortune, but I can't read the article as it's paywalled. From the excerpt, I suspect it's not SigCov.

From this, I think he narrowly fails WP:GNG, doesn't pass subject specific notability guidelines, and I'm also a little suspicious about various contributors to the article. BrigadierG (talk) 00:11, 20 November 2022 (UTC)

- Delete Plenty of hits on him giving advice on any particular topic, nothing about him as a person/subject of an article. His positions as above don't really seem to be at GNG either. Oaktree b (talk) 01:01, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Agreed with the above. While notability can be shown by the number of sources IF they were entirely about the subject (ever 2–3 might suffice), these are not that. — Moops ⋠T⋡ 01:06, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
