Dave Wortman wants to help health care catch up with the rest of the world.
The founder and CEO of Diagnotes Inc. thinks his company’s mobile app can help doctors run their office from their iPhones—just as many other professionals have been doing for years.
More broadly, Wortman, who in the 1990s led the business software company Made2Manage Systems Inc., thinks health care is going through the same kind of IT revolution the rest of the business world went through in the 1980s and 1990s.
“We really believe we’ve got an opportunity to reduce the cost of health care in a really significant way,” said Wortman, 61.
For now, Diagnotes is trying to revolutionize a small part of health care—daily emergencies and after-hours calls doctors must deal with—usually with little information about the patients they have to diagnose.
