Will Health-Care IT and Telemedicine Lead to Better Treatment, a Healthier Population and Reduced Medical Costs?

Chopra, the nation's first ever chief technology officer, has made it a priority to advance the nation's health-care reform goals through the use of technology in health care and telemedicine. He will discuss using technology to drive new care models for prevention, early detection, disease management, independent living and appropriate virtual care for people in their own homes. With millions of Americans about to apply for health insurance for the first time, Chopra is leading the effort to make enrollment as easy as using the Internet to pay bills or file income taxes.
