The Health 2.0 Boston chapter was founded to support the growth of the regional healthcare IT community. We are a membership of entrepreneurs, students, physicians and investors with a common goal: to help improve the provision of care when we see problems. We meet once a month to discuss developments in the sector relevant to a broader audience, and hope that these conversations will continue outside of the setting we establish.
