In its mission to organize the the world’s information and make it universally accessible / useful, Google has certainly pushed the envelope further than anyone else. In its overall strategy the Health sector has clearly remained at the forefront. Late last year Google (on their blog) clearly announced its focus in this area. Speaking from personal experiences Adam Bosworth (VP Product Management, Google) said:
People need the medical information that is out there and available to be organized and made accessible to all. Which happens to be our mission. Health information should be easier to access and organize, especially in ways that make it as simple as possible to find the information that is most relevant to a specific patient’s needs.
Google initiated an internal project codenamed “Weaver” as a planned health information storage and management program. Currently in prototype stage, its being shown to health professionals and advisers to gather their opinion and feedback.
