Google teams up with PwC on military cloud bid
Google is adding its muscle to PriceWaterhouseCoopers' bid to build a new cloud-based healthcare system for the military that would support its more than 9.7 million beneficiaries.
PwC announced yesterday that it will team up with Google on a bid that will go to the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) for what's been dubbed the Healthcare Management Systems Modernization Electronic Health Record contract.
The DoD is looking to replace and modernize its online health system, enabling doctors and other healthcare providers, working both inside and outside of government, to easily and securely access medical records for military personnel, retirees and their families.
