Dr. Gregory Moore has joined Microsoft as corporate vice president of health technology and alliances. Moore made the jump from Google, where he was vice president of Google Cloud Healthcare & Life Sciences. Prior to Google, he served as chief emerging technology and informatics officer at Geisinger, a health system in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
Moore is working with Peter Lee, corporate vice president of Microsoft Healthcare, which has been actively rolling out tech solutions for healthcare, such as Microsoft Teams for hospitals and a cloud-based API for health record sharing. Microsoft also recently signed a long-term partnership with pharmacy giant Walgreens Boots Alliance to develop healthcare technologies.
Microsoft last week announced that it will shut down its medical record service HealthVault, marking an end to one of its early efforts into healthcare as the company focuses on cloud and AI services for healthcare providers.
“Clearly, managing such partner-focused collaborative efforts is one of the most important things we need to get right, and that starts with choosing the right leader,” Lee wrote in a blog post.
“Greg will be taking on the key responsibility to shepherd the dedicated research and development collaborations with our strategic partners, to deliver next-generation technologies and experiences for healthcare. He will bring into these partnerships the new AI and machine learning solutions that are being developed across Microsoft, to enable personalized care and empower care teams.”
Moore also works with the charitable organization Mission to the World to lead medical teams on missions to provide care in rural villages in Honduras.
