Summary: On this week’s Tech Nation, Moira speaks with JOHN PATRICK, former Vice President of Internet Technology at IBM, about his new book: “Health Attitude - Unraveling and Solving the Complexities of Healthcare”. He gives us some hints as to why healthcare costs so much and shares what's happening that makes our future bright. A lot of the solution lies in information systems and the internet. Then on BioTech Nation, SAM WHITEHOUSE, the COO of QuantuMDx, tells us about a simple device they are developing which can perform a 15 minute test for tuberculosis, HIV, influenza and more, all based on genetic markers. Better yet, it can tell if the condition is treatment resistant.
