"I am delighted to join the board of HealthWorldWeb because of its cutting-edge social networking technology, its community focus and the commitment of the company's leadership to making our health care system work better for everyone," said Millenson. Millenson is president of Health Quality Advisors LLC and the author of the critically acclaimed book, Demanding Medical Excellence: Doctors and Accountability in the Information Age. He is also a nationally recognized expert on patient empowerment, e-health and quality improvement and serves as the Mervin Shalowitz, M.D. Visiting Scholar at Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management.
