National Co-ordinator of Heath IT Exits
According to Government Health IT [HIMSS publication] and Paul McCloskey, Dr. Robert Kolodner, National Coordinator of Heath IT [NCHIT], said he would retire from federal service after a 30-year career during which he led the effort to build a working foundation for national health information sharing.
Enter David Blumenthal, MD
Kolodner will retire once his successor, Dr. David Blumenthal, was ready to take over the office. He will explore a range of opportunities for working in health IT after leaving government.
