On Tuesday February 12, 2013 the HHS Office of the National Coordinator hosted it\’s first Google + Hangout. The participants were:
- Doug Fridsma, M.D., Ph.D. – Chief Scientist at ONC
- Arien Malec – VP Strategy and Product Marketing at RelayHealth, Former Coordinator for the Direct Project
- Deven McGraw – Director of the Health Privacy Project at CDT
- John Moehrke – Principal Engineer: Interoperability and Security at GE
- Vince Kuraitis – Principal, Better Health Technologies, LLC
- Brian Ahier – Health IT Evangelist
- John Travis – Senior Director and Solution Strategist, Regulatory Compliance at Cerner
- Alice Leiter – Policy Counsel at Center for Democracy & Technology
It was a very interesting conversation and I look forward to future ONC Hangouts. This was a great example of government as a platform and I expect there will be some great uses of this tool for engaging the health IT community.
