Todd Park to Speak at Commonwealth Fund in San Francisco

Todd Park, U.S. Chief Technology Officer: Unleashing the Power of Open Data and Innovation for Health Care

Todd Park, U.S. Chief Technology Officer; Former CTO, Health and Human Services (HHS)

Park will discuss how advances in technology will continue to affect changes to our health-care system, create jobs and improve life for Americans. He will focus on his current work and how Healthcare.gov (which he helped create in his previous position as CTO of HHS) is being incorporated to help reduce health-care costs. He will also briefly discuss his overall work as CTO and how his health-care work ties in to this. Park joined the administration in August 2009 as chief technology officer of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. In this role, he served as a change agent and “entrepreneur-in-residence,” helping HHS harness the power of data, technology and innovation to improve the health of the nation.
