Aneesh Chopra, America's first-ever Chief Technology Officer under Obama, joins The Gist to assess Elon Musk's rebranded takeover of government tech via “Doge.” He outlines how the US Digital Service began under Obama, evolved during Trump's first term, and now—chainsaw and hat aside—retains surprising policy continuity across administrations. Plus, even as a Colorado hate crime occurs under the banner of "Free Palestine", it's important to remember that violent people perpetuate violent acts, not impassioned, or even wrong sentiments. And in the spiel - can we please put an end to the term "Stochastic Terrorism"?

January 23, 2025: Aneesh Chopra, Chief Strategy Officer at Arcadia, tackles the promises and pitfalls of data-driven healthcare transformation. How do economic incentives shape the use of technology in healthcare? With the adoption of AI and large language models, are we nearing a future where personalized, evidence-based care becomes the norm—or are we still bogged down by regulatory and cultural barriers? Aneesh explores the "good, bad, and ugly" of data-driven healthcare, the impact of AI on clinical decision-making, and the ethics of transparency in patient communication.Key Points:01:38 Data: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly17:48 Economic Incentives in Healthcare22:32 Medicaid Explored36:52 Data Sharing and Risk Adjustment41:04 Value-Based Care and Future PlansSubscribe: This Week HealthTwitter: This Week HealthLinkedIn: Week HealthDonate: Alex's Lemonade Stand: Foundation for Childhood Cancer
This episode of Quality Matters features highlights from the NCQA Health Innovation Summit panel discussion on data interoperability, held on November 1st in Nashville. Moderated by Arcadia's Aneesh Chopra, the panel explored how to make health data accessible and usable for improving patient care. Panelists (Laura McCrary of KONZA, Dr. Marc Overhage of Elevance Health and Abdul Shaikh of AWS) emphasize interoperability is critical for quality reporting, care coordination and closing care gaps. Emphasizing trust as the cornerstone of data exchange frameworks such as TEFCA, panelists outline the need for alignment between payers, providers and technology organizations to ensure better health outcomes. The panel unpacks technical and operational challenges surrounding interoperability, such as integrating fragmented data sources and transforming raw reports into insight practitioners can use at the point of care. Panelists compare HIEs and QHINs to highways, illustrating how these systems enable cross-border data sharing. But delivering actionable information, rather than overwhelming clinicians with reports, remains a challenge. Solutions such as Bulk FHIR and cloud-based technologies are highlighted as promising ways to help data reach its best, highest use. The discussion closes with an appeal for greater collaboration and participation in initiatives like the NCQA Bulk FHIR Quality Coalition to test modern quality measures. As Laura McCrary points out, the interoperability challenge isn't just technological—it's cultural and contractual. By aligning incentives and fostering trust between stakeholders, health care can evolve from fragmentation to seamless, person-centered care. Key Quote: "Bringing data together for a particular patient so we have a comprehensive view for clinical care, quality assessment, predictive modeling, whatever it might be–it's still the golden ring that I'm trying to get to.We have standards and that's great, and those continue to improve.It's pretty amazing the volume of data and the number of people that we're able to access and share data between payers, providers, other participants in the healthcare ecosystem."Marc Overhage, MD Time Stamps:(2:55) Data exchange is all about trust.(4:38) QHINs are the superhighways of health data exchange. HIEs are the on- and off-ramp.(5:25) QHINs were created to work around geographic limitations of HIEs.(6:12) QHINs' challenge is providing information in a way that practitioners can use.(7:21 ) To understand where data exchange can go wrong, focus on the interfaces between steps.(9:12) Data exchange agreements often require legal expertise as much as technical expertise.(11:13) The industry faces a big binary choice about how to organize quality information.(12:46) Bulk fire and cloud computing are a powerful combination.(14:31) Join the Bulk FHIR Quality Coalition.Links:Bulk FHIR Quality CoalitionQuality Matters Ep: 07Quality Matters Ep: 08Connect with Aneesh ChopraConnect with Laura McCraryConnect with Marc OverhageConnect with Abdul Shaikh

MISSION, TEXAS - The program notes for a recent healthcare conference in the Rio Grande Valley pointed out that the region's “expensive and tough-to-access” healthcare system came under the microscope in 2009 thanks to a landmark article in The New Yorker by Dr. Atul Gawande.The article, titled “The Cost Conundrum” became “mandatory reading during the debate surrounding President Obama's Affordable Care Act in 2010,” the program stated.Gawande's article was referenced a number of times by the conference's keynote speaker, Aneesh Chopra, president of Care Journey and former U.S. chief technology officer.The conference was titled Accelerator 2023, RGV Health Equity. It was hosted jointly by Western Governors University and AltaCair. It was held at Mission Event Center. In their program notes, WGU/AltaCair explained why they hosted the conference.“The RGV region has 24.7 percent of familiars living below the poverty level, nearly triple the percentage for the United States, according to the RGV Health Connect Organization. The population struggle with diabetes, obesity, and cervical cancer among other health issues. “The Rio Grande Regional Hospital states that an estimated 76,000 people in the region have diabetes. The COVID-19 pandemic further augmented the challenges of RGV with economic depressions and heightened inequities. The four RGV counties – Starr, Hidalgo, Willacy, and Cameron counties – are among the poorest counties in the nation and access to healthcare is unaffordable for many residents.”According to the US Census Bureau, 9.8 percent of people under the age of 65 do not have health insurance nationwide. But, the percentages for the four counties in the Valley are much higher:Hidalgo County: 33.1 percentCameron County: 29.9 percentStarr County: 28.9 percentWillacy County: 24.1 percent.Here is an audio recording of everything Aneesh Chopra said at the Accelerator 2023, RGV Health Equity Conference.To read the new stories and watch the news videos of the Rio Grande Guardian International News Service go to www.riograndeguardian.com.

In the uncertainty of today's healthcare industry, we must continue to persevere towards our true north. The moral imperative to improve the quality of care for patients through better care coordination, including those are underserved, can only be achieved by the realities of the digital age. This transformation will require the medical profession to create a modernized Hippocratic Oath that extends to the broader health ecosystem. The proliferation of interoperable technology and digital health tools has the potential to catalyze value-based care delivery innovation and transparency. However, it must come along with an ethical commitment to guide data sharing, integration, and technical processes. True North will ultimately prevail in connecting value-based networks to those most in need; however, it will take continued progress in amplifying the demand signal for value-based care. On the Race to Value this week, you will hear from one of the top healthcare revolutionaries in our country. We are honored to bring you, the one and only,Aneesh Chopra - the first chief technology officer of the United States who was appointed by President Obama and the Co-Founder and President of CareJourney. In this episode, you will be party to a powerful conversation on the promise of the digital age in healthcare. You will learn about how health policy and innovation is ushering in a new era of data flow and interoperability, consumer-driven innovation, price transparency, and clinically-relevant analytics for the future of value-based care delivery transformation. Aneesh Chopra also explains why he feels so strongly why ACO REACH will help us reach True North. Episode Bookmarks: 01:30 Introduction to Aneesh Chopra - - the first Chief Technology Officer of the United States and Co-Founder and President of CareJourney 04:00 The need for the medical profession to galvanize around the immense opportunity to transform care delivery by embracing the realities of digital age. 06:30 Why do we need a digital Hippocratic Oath to transform medicine? 08:00 The gap between patients being seen on a given day and the 98% of the patient panel that are not. 08:30 Designing database queries and algorithms to Identify patients in need of care. 09:30 Creating a compact between analytics communities and physicians to ensure patients are getting appropriate care. 10:45 The self-imposed barriers to technical and semantic interoperability that come from our current FFS model. 12:00 How the HITECH Act manifested in technology gaps, despite widespread EHR penetration. 14:00 “The delay in the demand signal for value-based care resulted in the de-prioritization in the market for interoperability.” 15:30 The regulatory goals of the 21st Century Cures Act to scale interoperability and eliminate information blocking. 16:45 Cures Act regulatory emphasis on population health is now reaching the market. 17:00 FHIR Interoperability Standards will ultimately deliver on the promise of population health through widespread data exchange and API-led connectivity. 18:00 Ensuring value-based care organizations a “plug and play” approach to unify electronic health records. 19:00 The promise of widespread data exchange in value-based care delivery and how it parallels with the consumer banking industry. 20:30 Similarities between Dodd-Frank Act (banking sector) and the Cures Act (healthcare sector) in regard to consumer data protections. 22:30 JPMorgan cutting off access to Mint because screen-scraping was far less secure than API connectivity. 25:00 If value-based care became the dominant delivery model, the industry wouldn't need so much regulatory oversight. 26:00 The Cures Act is beginning to reverse FFS-driven market failures in order to create a much more rational economic model. 27:00 Referencing the opinion piece in STAT by Aneesh Chopra and Seema Verma about the new price transparency regulations in healthcare.

Listening In (With Permission): Conversations About Today's Pressing Health Care Topics
Suzanne calls up Aneesh Chopra, Co-Founder and President of CareJourney, to talk about the current state of health care transparency policy and how the US is faring. So, what's the mood on current regulations and government oversight? “The general feeling in the field is one of skepticism,” says Chopra, but he's much more bullish on it. According to Chopra, based on research CareJourney conducted in partnership with Turquoise Health, “two thirds of hospitals as of the spring of 2022…actually have meaningful, high-quality transparency data.” The question now is are we going to see this information put to use?

In Episode 111, Quinn & Brian discuss the past, present, and future of government IT infrastructure. ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED??? Our guest is Aneesh Chopra, the first Chief Technology Officer of the United States. Twelve years after serving under President Obama, he’s the co-founder of CareJourney, whose mission is to empower individuals and organizations they trust with open, clinically-relevant analytics and insights in the pursuit of the optimal healthcare journey. Sounds nice! Technology moves fast. Just look at Dogecoin! Government IT… not so much. So how the hell do we take the rapid innovations of Silicon Valley (fine, Miami) and apply it to our nimble little bureaucracy? It takes a little MacGyvering -- and a lot of talking. Aneesh’s goal is to be a translator between the public sector and the private sector, from health care to voting to SolarWinds. And just in time: modernizing the technical infrastructure of our government actually has bipartisan support — just look how the White House embraced Twitter! (sob sob sob) Aneesh has the ideas, tools, and plans to enhance communication, maximize our technological capabilities, and get hacked just a little less by Russia. Just a little.

This episode features guest Aneesh Chopra, the first Chief Technology Officer of the United States and more currently, the co-founder and president of CareJourney. Hosts Gary Austin and Ken Kleinberg sit down with Aneesh to discuss smarter choices the industry can make to move more quickly towards value based care, specifically direct contracting and third party apps.Aneesh first gives some background on his company CareJourney. He explains that CareJourney is, in many ways, the private sector implementation of his passion of serving in government around open data, open APIs and payment reform. His primary mission is to make sure we use all these open resources to help patients, through the organizations they trust, make smarter decisions throughout the healthcare delivery system.Gary asks Aneesh to overview direct contracting as well as what's to win here for providers. Aneesh says direct contracting is ripping the band-aid off the move to value-based care. Direct contracting is Medicare Advantage-like, but without the insurance company and without the consumer changing their actual insurance benefits. They retain all their Medicare benefits, but they have their capitated dollar. They can bring their resources to a primary care group and integrated delivery network to help them better manage their care without taking away any of their rights to see any doctor they wish. This model is a leapfrog from training wheels to full downside capitated risk. Aneesh explains that remote patient monitoring could be a category. CMS explicitly invites applicants who have proposals who can reduce the cost burden and improve quality for high needs patients, especially those who have historically fragmented care. The model allows for these entrants to drive the process and bring along a physician network that may help administer some of the services. Aneesh thinks it is traditional doctors and networks applying from Medicare Shared Savings to direct contracting.Gary asks Ken how interoperability plays into these arrangements. Ken says risk is about what you know and what you can control. The more you know, the better you can control that risk. Interoperability can bring in all kinds of data about that patient, traditional clinical data, social determinants of health and claims data. We can pull information from many different sources and understand our population in ways we've never been able to before. That gives you the power to control risk and do a better jobGary asks Aneesh what he thinks of the “patient gets everything from everyone, on demand, delivered anywhere model.” Is it good for the marketplace? Aneesh says it's great for the marketplace. It builds the healthcare data sharing infrastructure on a foundation of “must share.” One of the challenges we've had for the last 20 years is that we've built all these data sharing networks and policies that try to square a complicated circle. We are saying we want all of the information flowing where it's needed, but we have to honor the HIPPA minimum data necessary provisions. So, the broader the network, the broader the use cases, the weaker the signal because by definition, someone is on the network to do something that is only entitled to a minimum amount of data. If I have to join a network where I've got to meet the lowest common denominator, I'm not going to get the information I need nor am I going to help make better decisions for people because limited information, limited affect. What we need is a mechanism to right size the information sharing to the legal frameworks under which those information sharing provisions exist. The consumer's right to access health information by being bedrock as a foundational right in HIPPA. Now technically materializing through these two rules is a smarter method of sharing data because no matter what I am entitled to my full medical record and if I choose to share it with my primary care doctor, that's my choice and that's my right. Gary asks Aneesh how to get payers moving along. Aneesh suggests that instead of just working to meet the letter of the rule, payers should ask themselves what they are doing to meet the spirit of the rule and how that benefits the strategic plans of their organizations. His overarching message is shift from defense to offense. How can the investments you're making advance the goals you have? What apps are you putting in the hands of your consumers? Are you working to get those apps connected to every single EHR in your network? Ken agrees with Aneesh on the compliance. He says these organizations often ask themselves what is their bigger fear? Is it financial penalty? Losing some business? Will we do the best by just giving the minimum possible? In the end, what you're really trying to do is meet the business objectives, which is increase your brand and gain loyalty. You do that by providing information in a format that's more usable. That's where a lot of these technologies can play a role. That's where we get into these apps. You have the potential to give people information in a format that's usable to them. Gary moves the conversation to third-party health apps. Aneesh views CommonHealth and Apple Health as infrastructure. He notes there is a hypothetical fear that Google, Amazon, or Apple are going to swoop in and take over healthcare, but he does not believe that is the case. Aneesh says if anything, Google, Microsoft, and Amazon are going to be infrastructure partners to existing players in healthcare or these new direct contracting entities who are managing risk, building clinically integrated networks and engaging patients.Gary asks Ken what he thinks of third-party apps. Ken agrees with Aneesh in that trust starts with primary care physicians. Primary care physicians are likely going to go with apps that work with the EHRs and the portals that they are already familiar with. With regulations coming up, some consumer-type apps may surface that tend to do a better job than what might have been offered to the physician and their EHR vendor. As community pressure builds, the physician may go back to their EHR vendor and ask why they can't support this. That can drive some advance here. Gary asks Aneesh if this is an opportunity for payers to engage their members more deeply. Aneesh explains that high need patients suffer from terrible care fragmentation. It's so obvious that the plan can do a better job here. The decision support to go from fragmentation to coordination is best done by an entity that is trusted by the consumer to do that coordination. You want to trust an app that can be connected to a portal, get the updated feeds and have other context about my healthcare needs. Gary asks Ken for his closing remarks. Ken says this really has been a long journey, measured in decades. He is optimistic that things are getting better. Interoperability in the past decade or two has been like the wild west. Now, he thinks we are aiming with FHIR, projects like Da Vinci and USCDI to be much more practical. That's going to benefit everyone.Aneesh shares in Ken's optimism. We don't have the luxury of waiting decades for this chapter to have success. So, while it does take decades, we must move faster and make smarter decisions to comply with the rules, embrace value-based care and better engage consumers. These things will help accelerate that timeline. Let's do it smarter, together.
Matthew welcomes Aneesh Chopra, President of CareJourney and the first U.S. Chief Technology Officer, serving under the Obama Administration from 2009-2012. Aneesh discusses how new technology and innovation are key to transforming the current business model, the need for a national privacy policy and how value based care has fared during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Steve Bratt, lead of CodeX joins hosts Jocelyn Keegan and Gary Austin to discuss the integration of minimal common oncology data elements (mCODE)and leveraging FHIR API technology to accelerate significant improvements in cancer care and research.Gary first asks Steve to give listeners some background on CodeX. Steve credits the early conception of CodeX to the initial research his company MITRE conducted on standard health records. After recognizing the potential of their study, Steve's group decided to focus on a more specific problem within healthcare, cancer. The goal was to develop a common language for cancer data sharing. His team worked with the American Society of Clinical Oncology to convene a group of experts across pathology, radiology, surgery, chemotherapy and other areas to identify 90 of the most important data elements needed to treat all cancer cases. Gary asks Jocelyn how CodeX and Da Vinci interrelate. Jocelyn explains that with FHIR, they are building communities who can pick up and use preexisting toolkits. However, it is specificity that is needed to make these powerful tools work. That's where there is overlap. Da Vinci and CodeX use cases started to talk about where CodeX could build upon Da Vinci payer and provider frameworks. CodeX is extending the purpose by utilizing subject matter experts who know these workflows well. Jocelyn adds that she believes CodeX is amazing in many ways. It is focused on an area of healthcare that touches most all our personal lives, not just our professional lives. There is so much to be gained by unlocking and freeing this data. That is different from other accelerators. Gary asks Steve what types of people are engaged with CodeX. Steve says they start with the thought leaders. People like Aneesh Chopra, Dr. Monica Bertagnolli, and John Halamka. These individuals not only have far-reaching networks who listen to them, but they also help develop the vision and unite communities. So how does CodeX get patients involved? Steve notes that one of the first use cases was patient clinical trial matching, which as is, is a very inequitable process. CodeX works with the American Cancer Society to automate the collection of data from EHRs. The data is sent to matching services using mCODE who then send back structured clinical trials matching certain patient characteristics. Patients will then be able to search and prioritize results.Another use case addresses how do we conduct clinical trials out of data in the EHR. If you're in a clinical trial, you receive high quality, structured data. Only 3-6 percent of cancer patients get in clinical trials, so if we get all the cancer patients' data out of EHRs and into mCODE, now there are 100 percent of the cancer patients from which we can learn. We will have a massive amount of information from all cancer patients. When you bring the EHRs up to a higher level, not just the quality of data, but also in a standard language, this would allow the EHRs to be a source of patient data for many use cases. Jocelyn notes that since FHIR makes data functionable and portable, there could be even more use cases developed. If we can make data move and be accessible, projects that previously could not get funded now become possible. These accelerators bring interested people together to do the right thing. Gary asks how accelerators can come together to quicken the prior authorization process. Jocelyn says layering is key. The value that Steve's team will bring to the table is to augment tools around prior authorization that have already been built. His group will look at their specific workflow, understand how it is different from a typical prior authorization and build upon that. Steve notes that many people affiliated with CodeX also work with Da Vinci, so they know the value it could provide if vendors adopt it. If we could share patient clinical pathways needed for prior authorization, it could speed up the process for patients who really need care. It would reduce back and forth on complex issues. There are so many promising things that can be done working with Da Vinci, provided we get the payers to table. Jocelyn points out that all the work we're doing by freeing this data via APIs is meant to automate when possible. We want healthcare equity. No matter where you are physically located, you have the same access to the same type of treatment. The second piece here is transparency. There's so much unknown when somebody is going through their initial cancer diagnosis. The ability to say, at a patient-specific level, here are what your options are and here is what your insurer will cover is game changing in helping that patient. We can make better care decisions if we can bring the two worlds of administrative and clinical together. Gary asks what engagement we are seeing from vendors. Steve has seen a lot of interest from many different vendors. Jocelyn notes that these projects, at their core, are human-powered efforts. It's the volunteers that get the work done. Steven has had great interest but in order to make the accelerators fully functional, it's really about the participation of organizations. Gary asks Steve what he would say to key decision-makers who could be involved in this work. Steve says everyone we talk to just gets it. We need to go beyond saying it's great, let us know when it's delivered. They need to see the value proposition in CodeX now and understand they can impact the direction it goes. You can get early insights into what is happening and work directly with vendors to let them know what your needs are. It's all about getting the word out. We need people coming to the table.
Former United States CTO Aneesh Chopra joins us to discuss how availability of critical healthcare data is hampering our efforts to contain the COVID pandemic. See topics and media mentioned during the show in the notes below: Obama Pcast Obama administration's report on H1N1 Startup America UCSF's Covidcounties.org project Aneesh's bio
August 7, 2020: Aneesh Chopra, First CTO for the US elaborates on 21st Century Cures. How should CIO’s prepare? How do we scale an interoperability strategy that is built on the patient's right of access? Our industry finally has a chance to self organize and standardize data elements for sharing. Why have the banking, education and energy industries beaten us to the punch? How do we approach intellectual property issues? We also look at payment reform and value based care.Key Points:Data sharing policies for COVID lab reporting [00:12:36] Interoperability in support of the patient equals better health outcomes, better health and a better community. [00:13:21]One doctor who’s had an electronic record for 30 years can’t even give a list of patients who smoke because it was not a structured field in the EHR! [00:19:19] How dangerous is a compliance mindset? [00:27:47] 21st Century Cures [00:28:05] Information blocking [00:32:16]Intellectual property issues [00:33:33]Why has healthcare, 10 years after the initial data set was published, not added a single data element beyond the minimum required in the open source domain? [00:21:33]Apple Health [00:41:17]
When the pandemic hit, millions of Americans found themselves in a tight spot – practice social distancing to avoid COVID-19, but what if you have a health condition that requires seeing a doctor? Technology could transform the way people access health care, and the U.S. has made huge investments in this over the past decade. But, as health technology expert Aneesh Chopra explains on the latest episode of The Dose, we still haven’t realized the full potential of digitization when it comes to delivering health care.
In this latest episode of Tuning Healthcare, Aneesh Chopra discusses how the lack of data transparency and interoperability has crippled the ability for the US to respond to current COVID-19 public health crisis. Aneesh is the president and cofounder of CareJourney, a data and analytics company focused on the move to value-based care, and was also the former first Chief Technology Officer of the United States, serving under President Obama from 2009 to 2012. Aneesh and Nigel also discusses how the move to value-based care may accelerate as a result of this crisis, and how revitalizing our nation’s healthcare IT infrastructure could speed up improvements for providers, payers and consumers.

He also discusses how the move to value-based care may accelerate as a result of this crisis, and how revitalizing our nation’s healthcare IT infrastructure could speed up improvements for providers, payers and consumers. “We may emerge with a different cost structure in the healthcare delivery system, that's more asset light. That may be disruptive to organizations that generate the big institutional revenue, but we're going to work our way through that change. That would have come anyway through value-based care, but this will just accelerate. And then you'd ask the question, "If I can treat this group of patients at home, in a much lower cost setting, with this remote monitoring, with physicians checking in at this time period and we get similar or better outcomes, remind me again why we're not doing that today?" – Aneesh Chopra, President of CareJourney and former Chief Technology Officer of the United States In this episode, Aneesh and Lumeris Senior Vice President Nigel Ohrenstein discuss: • The lack of data transparency and interoperability in healthcare and its impact during the COVID-19 crisis • How the move to value-based care may accelerate in the post-pandemic era • What the new normal of healthcare could look like from a care delivery and infrastructure standpoint • What a fully informed provider and patient experience could look like • How data transparency and consumer apps can help speed up interoperability Cited works: • Text Message Alert 1 Sound.

Aneesh Chopra is one of the foremost names in healthcare IT today. He was appointed by President Barack Obama to serve as the United States' first Chief Technology Officer. After his three years as CTO, President Obama hailed his service, saying Chopra's “legacy of leadership and innovation will benefit Americans for years to come.” In the years since he served as the nation's CTO, Chopra has worked tirelessly to promote a better and more efficient healthcare system. Aneesh was one of the four industry leaders that convened the CARIN Alliance in 2016, a bipartisan, multi-sector collaborative working to advance the consumer-directed exchange of health information. He was also part of the founding group that started the Argonaut Project, an effort designed to accelerate the development and adoption of HL7's Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR®) standard. Chopra authored a book, “Innovative State: How New Technologies can Transform Government.” Currently, Aneesh is president of CareJourney, a healthcare analytics company based in Arlington, Virginia. Aneesh Chopra and Niko Skievaski covered many important issues in this engaging conversation. Some of the topic highlights can be found at: 02:25 – Aneesh's service as U.S. CTO 15:12 – The role of government policy in encouraging innovation in healthcare 25:12 – Evolving infrastructure and incentives to promote interoperability 33:54 – Explaining the new rules from CMS 45:11 – Creating the apps that will facilitate consumer and industry adoption of new programs 54:05 – Resources for driving interoperability Interoperability and open APIs are clearly things that Aneesh Chopra believes will improve patient care and reduce the cost of healthcare. This new interop paradigm will be accomplished sooner if private and public forces work collaboratively in the interest of a better system for all Americans.Our thanks to Aneesh Chopra for joining us on The Redox Podcast.
Today we are talking to Aneesh Chopra, the First CTO of the United States of America.

How can we convince people to bet on us? It happens all the time -- getting hired, landing an investment in our startup and even people the people who we convince to date or eventually marry us! For President Obama's first Chief Technology Officer, Aneesh Chopra, he'd assumed politics was his path and ran for Lt. Governor of Virginia... but he lost. Hoping to break into startups, he soon realized he'd need to raise big bucks to attack the huge problems he saw in the health care sector. So what could a lifetime policy wonk and government bureaucrat do to get cofounders, VCs and employees to bet on him? Eric talks with Aneesh about his time in the White House -- including being coined "The Indian George Clooney" by John Stewart on the Daily Show -- and how sometimes what we create is often just as important as what we've done to get others to bet on us. Eric shows how making a bet on ourselves can help us learn where to go, and offer powerful evidence to others we hope to influence.

There's little debate that health care in this country needs improvement. Costs are high, paperwork is cumbersome and confusing, and patients can get lost in the shuffle. Some believe technology will drive improvements in health care. But the guest on today's podcast disagrees. Aneesh Chopra was the first ever U.S. Chief Technology Officer serving under President Obama. He says technology's role isn't to drive change, but to enable doctors, hospitals and even patients to create change. He dropped in for a conversation before a crowd of health care innovators at the Cambia Grove in Seattle. The interviewer for the event was Lee Huntsman, President Emeritus and Professor Emeritus of Bio-Engineering at the University of Washington.

Aneesh Chopra is the co-founder and President of NavHealth, and served as the first U.S. Chief Technology Officer under President Obama where, in addition to leading the charge on modernizing citizen engagement and government use of technology, he was responsible for programming aimed to reduce healthcare costs. The guys talk about Aneesh's experience as the first CTO of the US Government, and how he built a career combining public service, politics, and healthcare technology. Aneesh reflects on how to drive through seemingly insurmountable challenges with persistent optimism.
Aneesh Chopra has a lot of titles. He was the nation's first Chief Technology Officer, under President Obama. He's been a venture capitalist, a consultant, an entrepreneur and an author. And according to David Axelrod, Chopra is an evangelist for the power of “digitizing information” — especially in health care. Chopra joined POLITICO's Dan Diamond to reminisce about what they learned at the Advisory Board (starts at the 2:30 mark), why Chopra left the private sector to go work for Tim Kaine (8:15), what he did as the White House’s first CTO and his perspective on Obamacare (14:30), why he’s so bullish on the power of health data (23:30), why he thinks the government is leading the way (32:30), and what Silicon Valley can do in health care (40:15).

Last year, on the last day of the HIMSS'11 conference, Richard Boyd of Lockheed Martin Virtual World Labs shared his "Simulation Prescription"; showing how gaming and simulation technology have the potential to further revolutionize health care. One year later, OATV was able to catch up with Richard, now Director of Emerging and Disruptive Technologies (or as Aneesh Chopra calls him - "Disruptive Man"), on the developments that Lockheed Martin has taken to create a Virtual World Ecosystem Framework. The great news? Lockheed has taken a kernel approach, creating roles for what he hopes is going to become a massively parallel contribution system. AND it's going to be released with an open license with the goal of getting simulation everywhere on any modern web browser. Richard says that we can expect to see the software "kernel" made available midway through 2012, thanks in large part to some of Lockheed's federal partners.
