Kudos to Matthew Holt and Indu Subaiya for putting on an excellent inaugural conference last Thursday. The panels were excellent, providing insight into the future of health on the net.
Search, vertical health search, social media for patients and providers were all represented with a distinguished closing panel giving thoughts on the future. I was impressed with the diversity of angles people have identified to address the "hairball" of health care in the U.S.
It was also great to see former RHR friend Doug Evans, CEO of Presidio Health. They have closed a Series A round of funding and are expanding their already successful convergence hospital medical billing and operations business to a consumer model.
I also got to catch up with an old friend, Stephanie Ho. An HBS grad and former intern with me at BizBuyer.com, Stephanie is now a Vice President at Bertram Capital focusing on the health space. Stephanie has become a player in the growth equity game for health care and is looking at the space for potential investments.

Hi David,
I've only just found this blog.
Yep, was aware of the Health 2.0 Conference and made contact with Indu and Matthew last year.
I gave an extensive interview a couple of weeks after the Conference (I only know what I've read about it on the web) and Health 2.0 came up several times.
Great that PLM were represented in person.
Looking forward to seeing things progressing over the course of the year.
McDawg,
Thanks for the comment. Yes, we at PLM try to attend the events that shape the future of the space and the Health 2.0 conference does just that.
Well written article.
