This morning, I attended a program at the Massachusetts Technology Leadership forum featuring John Lewis, Regional VP of Sales, of athenahealth. John’s presentation centered on his company’s experiences of selling what he referred to as health care’s first cloud-based service.
Following on the heels of recent conversations, I’ve had with CIOs, about placing confidential patient data in the cloud; I expected John to tell us how he overcomes this objection. Instead, he spent the morning convincing us that operating in the cloud is his company’s competitive advantage. John supported this thesis with figures, facts, and logic.
