Audacious Inquiry Recognized as a Microsoft HealthVault Consultant 
Columbia, Md. (June 9, 2008) – Audacious Inquiry, an innovative management and technology firm, has been recognized by Microsoft as a Microsoft HealthVault development consultant. The company made the announcement today at the Microsoft HealthVault Solutions Conference in Bellevue, where it is presenting a cutting-edge, consumer-driven health information exchange application it has developed for Erickson Retirement Communities leveraging the Microsoft HealthVault platform.
“Working together with Microsoft further strengthens AI’s position as a leading provider of consulting services in the rapidly-evolving field of health information exchange,” said Christopher Brandt, managing partner.
Audacious Inquiry’s health information exchange consulting practice includes Erickson Retirement Communities, hospital systems, and government agencies among its clients.
HealthVault (http://www.healthvault.com/) is a free Web-based platform designed to put people in control of their health data. It helps them collect, store and share health information with family members and participating healthcare providers, and it provides people with a choice of third-party applications and devices to help them manage things such as fitness, diet and health. HealthVault also provides a privacy- and security-enhanced foundation on which a broad ecosystem of providers—from medical providers and health and wellness device manufactures to health associations—can build innovative new health and wellness management solutions to help put people in control of their and their family’s health.
To become a HealthVault development consultant, Microsoft requires that the consultant’s application has met all Microsoft requirements for going live and that its configuration has been propagated to Microsoft’s consumer environment.
