The goal of the More Disruption Please Innovation Challenge was to attract entrepreneurs to healthcare. As athenahealth puts it, Healthcare needs less distraction and more disruption. This year's More Disruption Please Innovation Challenge attracted over 70 teams in a challenge that asked them to step up to the challenge of building cloud-based solutions that solve hospitals' biggest pain points.
