We're looking for big ideas-6.9 petabytes is a good start. That's how much data we manage and store in Information Technology at Kaiser Permanente-more than the Library of Congress can claim. We're home to some other big ideas, like creating KP HealthConnect®, the nation's largest electronic medical record system. Using social media and text messaging to help members engage in their own care. And developing predictive modeling tools that anticipate health issues before they're an issue.
It's the kind of thinking that's shaping the future of technology, health care, and the lives of all 8.6 million of our members. If you're ready to contribute your own big ideas, join us.
