Health 2.0 is for healthcare innovators, clinicians, patients, and technical developers. We discuss topic in innovation regularly. This group is dedicated to advancing largely technological innovations that focus on improvement of patient care with the active involvement of Patients, Nurses, Physicians, Administrators, Engineers, and even Lawyers. If it is Healthcare patient-focused innovation, then it belongs in our meetup. Borne of the Health 2.0 international movement, Eugene Borukovich started the NYC Chapter in 2008. Our chapter has since grown to become one of the largest in the world, running events that focus on specific topics such as the impact of social media in Healthcare or our Startup pitch contest called "Pitch Yourself into the Shark Tank." The partnerships and collaborations that have come from this meetup are numerous as well.Who presents here? * Patients who have designed apps to improve their health and the health of others * Physicians who create innovative care models * Entrepreneurs who create new and improved Direct Provider Access systems * Hospital Executives driving development and adoption of new ideas * Nurses who reinvent nursing management methods * Pharmacists who design better medication management systems * Game Designers who make patient education fun * Engineers that invent and enable new care paradigms * Designers who create popular apps * Innovative government leaders seeking positive change * and so many more amazing people and companies...Mostly what we have are the leaders of the NYC healthcare innovation scene. By putting us all together in one place, we are creating the future of healthcare.
