Two former longtime executives at Microsoft have reunited at Truveta , a startup co-owned by 14 major US health providers that aims to improve patient care by using artificial intelligence.
David Heiner Jr., who spent over 25 years at Microsoft, joined Truveta this month as chief policy officer and general counsel. He’ll report to Terry Myerson, a fellow Microsoft veteran who led the company’s Windows business before leaving in 2018.
“Truveta presents a tremendous opportunity to improve people’s lives at scale through data,” Heiner said in a statement Tuesday.
The Seattle-based company went live last month with its plans use software to pool medical data and improve outcomes, according to Bloomberg News.
Truveta’s backers include Providence Health & Services, one of the largest Catholic nonprofit health care providers in the US, the Bon Secours Mercy Health, Northwell Healthcare, Tenet Healthcare, and Trinity Health.
Heiner, a former Microsoft strategic policy adviser and deputy general counsel for regulatory affairs, retired from the company in late 2019 and took time off to do pro bono work, Alisha Mark, a Truveta spokeswoman and another former Microsoft employee, told Bloomberg Law.
