Former Kennedy Aide To Head Health IT Efforts

By CONGRESSDAILY STAFF

David Blumenthal, a former Harvard Medical School professor who has advised Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Chairman Edward Kennedy and former Massachusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis, is President Obama's choice to lead health information technology efforts in the new administration. Blumenthal, a physician who was a senior adviser to Obama's presidential campaign last year, will become the national coordinator for health information technology at HHS. He will play a key role in determining how to spend $19 billion devoted to medical technology in the recently enacted economic stimulus bill. Blumenthal most recently has been director of the Institute for Health Policy at the Massachusetts General Hospital/Partners HealthCare System.
