“National health spending is expected to reach $2.5 trillion in 2009, accounting for 17.6 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP). This is a market segment that has not been missed by the folks at Microsoft. In fact, today, Microsoft Corp. announced the launch of what they term “a fast-paced online video series designed to showcase how software innovation is improving health around the world.”
The show, called “Microsoft Health Tech Today,” is said to be at “the intersection of health and information technology,” and highlights the latest industry trends. The software giant promises that the show will feature examples of solutions that have already been proven to improve health and change lives for clinicians, patients and consumers worldwide.”
