Of course, it’s difficult for us to know all the circumstances of the situation, especially since it’s a cabinet-level executive branch department of the federal government in 2020. Jose has been a champion of blockchain in healthcare for years now, reportedly had positive things to say about the HHS Protect initiative (which I featured in my last episode’s News Corner). The program aims to increase hospitalization data transparency using their platform called the Coronavirus Data Hub.  I wish the best for Jose going forward and hope he plans to stay in the industry. We can use a person with his experience and passion to keep educating people on the value of decentralized ledger technology in healthcare. I invite him to come talk with me on Health Unchained.
