On Wednesday, Techstars announced John Fein as managing director of the Sprint Mobile Health Accelerator, powered by Techstars. David Cohen, managing partner and founder of Techstars, posted the news on the accelerator’s site, writing that Fein “has a wealth of experience managing large, cross-functional teams and has been involved in four different startups.” Fein served as senior project manager at OptumRx since 2005, and in his own blog post wrote about the potential of the program: “From pharmacy to disease management to wellness programs, there are countless opportunities for technology to improve the health of consumers, and by extension the healthcare system itself. I’m psyched to play a small role in making the world a better place. And I’m even more excited that we’re doing this from the heart of Silicon Prairie.” Applications for the program—which begins March 10—remain open until January 6. — Source: Techstars
