Google has reportedly picked David Feinberg, CEO of US-based health
services organisation Geisinger Health, to lead the company's healthcare
efforts.
While Google has not officially confirmed the move,
Geisinger, in a statement on Thursday, said that Feinberg was leaving
Geisinger on January 3, 2019, to assume a leadership role at Google.
Feinberg's
job at Google will involve figuring out how to organise the company's
fragmented health initiatives, which overlap among many different
business groups, CNBC reported.
Among the groups interested in
healthcare are Google's core search team, its Cloud business, the Google
Brain artificial intelligence team, the Nest home automation group and
the Google Fit wearables team, the report added.
While Feinberg
is likely to report to Google's Artificial Intelligence head Jeff Dean,
he is also expected to work closely with the company's CEO Sundar
Pichai.
Feinberg is leaving Geisinger after leading the company for nearly four years.
"It
has been a great privilege to lead Geisinger during the past nearly
four years. Together, we have improved patient and member experience,
along with our quality of care, employee engagement and physician and
nurse recruitment, and our legacy of innovation has blossomed," Feinberg
said in a statement.
Geisinger announced the appointment of
Jaewon Ryu as the company's interim President and Chief Executive
Officer, effective December 1, 2018.
