When AllScripts announced its acquisition of Eclipsys on June 9, I thought that would be the biggest healthcare IT M&A news for at least a year. But we’re not even through the month and it’s been bested by the news Siemens released on Friday.Of course, I’m talking about that company’s acquisition of Partners HealthCare VP and CIO John Glaser to head its Health Services Business Unit as CEO. And don’t forget, Glaser’s not just one of the top CIOs in the country, but also just finished paling around with the National Coordinator for Healthcare IT David Blumenthal, M.D., as his senior advisor in shaping early HITECH policy. Talk about connected!
