The following is a press release announcing Tim Fitzpatrick joining Altus Alliance to lead a new healthcare I.T. practice:
Federal stimulus funding and technology reforms are causing many companies to directly target the dynamic and growing healthcare technology market.
Tim Fitzpatrick, an industry veteran with 22 years of healthcare sales and business development experience will be leading Altus’s new healthcare division and will be working closely with partner Dave Chase, the founder of Microsoft’s healthcare division and MSHUG-the Microsoft Health Users Group.
“We’re pleased to have Tim as part of the Altus Alliance” says Dave Chase. “His depth of experience, contacts and skills will help Altus expand beyond our technology focus and into the evolving Healthcare market.”
“Healthcare technology and especially healthcare information technology is in gold rush mode” says Mr. Fitzpatrick, “Our focus is to help companies develop and execute a sales strategy that will significantly increase their healthcare revenues. We are not here to provide “whiteboard consulting” but rather to bring our experience and contacts to bear and deliver an immediate impact on healthcare sales revenue and business development traction.”
Mr. Fitzpatrick feels that the current dynamics of the healthcare market is creating opportunities for new companies as well as existing firms and technologies.
“If your company is a new venture with a healthcare focus, we will help you plan, execute and scale your sales. If you are an existing firm that is somewhat horizontal but with applicable healthcare technologies, this is one market you should consider giving a significant vertical focus.”
