IDX Systems Corporation

Main Speaker

Richard Tarrant, Co-Founder of IDX Systems Corporation In 1969, Rich Tarrant and Robert Hoehl, both graduates of St. Michael's College, co-founded a company called Burlington Data Processing - performing payroll, billing, and accounting functions. Over time the company began specializing in the healthcare industry. As IDX Systems Corporation, it grew to be a leading provider of healthcare information technology solutions: maximizing value in the delivery of healthcare, improving the quality of patient service, enhancing medical outcomes, and reducing the costs of care. Not long after the company's 25th anniversary and the hiring of its 1000th employee, IDX became the largest home-grown company to go public in the history of Vermont. In 2003, Rich stepped down as CEO to become Chairman of the Board of Directors and has held that seat through the company's recent acquisition by GE, a global leader in medical imaging, healthcare services, life sciences and information technology. Rich will join VVN to discuss his experiences with IDX over the last three decades.
