Humedica is a new, venture-backed clinical informatics company that is making a big splash in the health care industry. In part 1 of my podcast with Humedica’s CEO Michael Weintraub and VP Corporate Development & Marketing Allen Kamer we discussed a variety of topics including the company's aspiration to offer a "census view" of health care in America, the use of EHR-based feeds instead of claims, and the use of Humedica-generated information for business intelligence and clinical decision support.In part 2 we focus on:

• The company's strategic alliance with the American Medical Group Association (AMGA) and AMGA's Anceta collaborative data warehouse
• The connection between Humedica and efforts by the Federal government to establish meaningful use of electronic health records
• Humedica's potential role in comparative effectiveness research
• Expansion into additional customer segments including life sciences, financial services, the government and payers and how Humedica
• The vision for the company 5 or 7 years down the road
