Interview: Bill Crounse, Microsoft

At the Consumer Health World Conference in DC I had a chance to catch up with Bill Crounse, Health Care Industry Director for Microsoft, to talk about the role technology can play in health care.

Everyone is focused on providing higher quality care, lower cost, and better service. 80% of health care business in the US is conducted on paper, so there is a long way to go and many opportunities for technology to help.

No matter what kind of system we live under (free market, single payor), health care is rationed. It is a finite resource. That is the contraint we live with.
