He also has been chief health information and innovation officer at Partners Healthcare System in Boston. Blumenthal replaces Karen Davis, who had run the fund since 1995.
In the fund announcement, the nonprofit’s chairman, James Tallon Jr., said “we are extremely fortunate to have Dr. Blumenthal take the helm of the Fund at a crucial time in the drive to achieve a high performance health system. If the U.S. is to realize the triple aims of better health, better care, and lower cost, it will need over the next 10 years unstinting efforts by health policy and practice leaders like Dr. Blumenthal. He is ideally suited to carry forward The Commonwealth Fund’s significant role in advancing delivery and payment system changes that will improve system performance.”
