Massachusetts is leading the way in the design and development of information technology infrastructure crucial to national health reform—so far ahead of other states that the Washington, DC-based blog Politico Pro recently took notice. A news story covered the New England States Collaborative for Insurance Exchange Systems (NESCIES) and its work on an Early Innovator collaborative agreement administered by Commonwealth Medicine and principal investigator Jay Himmelstein, MD, MPH, professor of family medicine & community health and medicine, and the chief policy strategist in the Center for Health Policy and Research.
