** Behind Party Lines
------------------------------------------------------------

There are two Washingtons, says Aneesh Chopra, former CTO of the United States, now Co-founder & CEO of CareJourney.

"There's the Washington that we see in the cable news shows [where] everyone hates each other, battle royale, fight to the death. The shift from closed to open on data... that's part of the quiet Washington where people on both sides of the aisle actually want to sit together and make things work."

In this episode of StartUp Health NOW, Aneesh Chopra goes under the hood with Farzad Mostashari, MD, Former National Coordinator for Health IT, HHS, now Co-founder & CEO at Aledade.
