Alan Swenson is the Vice President of Interoperability at Kno2, where his focus is on improving interoperability across the entire continuum of care. He is responsible for overseeing specific projects aimed to extend interoperability into hard to reach markets, and groups not previously part of government incentive programs to drive interoperability like post-acute. He represents Kno2’s partners and customers in industry trade associations and actively participates and leads in other industry interoperability initiatives, such as Carequality, CommonWell Health Alliance, and DirectTrust. In addition, Alan currently serves as a Member Board Director for NASL and is Vice-Chair of their IT Committee, leading NASL interoperability initiatives, including comments to the ONC and CMS interoperability rules and ONC's draft two of the Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement (TEFCA).
Jon Elwell is Chief Executive Officer at Kno2. He leads the company in its mission to solve interoperability for the healthcare industry and truly transform the way patient information is exchanged. While Kno2’s Interoperability as a Service has its place in every care setting, Elwell initially focused on charting a course for the post-acute providers – skilled nursing, assisted living, behavioral health, therapies, and others – where interoperability was lacking. Now that 75% of the technology vendors who support that market are largely integrated to Kno2, Jon is currently driving expansion to the remaining healthcare sectors.
