subject: Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick's visit to NaviNet Headquarters [print this page] On Tuesday we were very fortunate to have a special guest at NaviNet headquarters. Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick visited NaviNet headquarters in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Following a tour and meeting with NaviNet executives, Governor Patrick and NaviNet representatives discussed growth in the health information technology (HIT) industry and its positive impact on the state's economy. NaviNet executives also discussed the role Massachusetts HIT companies, including NaviNet, have had in national healthcare initiatives.
Governor Patrick told us that "Just last month Massachusetts added over 19,000 private sector jobs, the largest monthly gain in 20 years and the sixth straight month of strong job gains - in large part because of companies like NaviNet that continue to innovate, grow and expand. With the help of businesses like NaviNet and countless others across the Commonwealth, we will continue to emerge from this global recession stronger and faster than the rest of the nation and build a stronger and brighter Commonwealth for a generation to come."
Governor Patrick's understanding of the key issues and challenges that our industry faces was very evident, as was his big-picture insight into how healthcare IT vendors can improve our nation's healthcare system overall.
We also posted these photos on Facebook and Twitter, so be sure to stay connected by 'liking' and 'following' us respectively.

Brad Waugh
