HLTH has the potential to be the health-care business of the future.
It is making the right moves, with the merger with WEB-MD.
If it manages to capture the attention of consumers, MDs,HMOs, drug companies, it will command a very high price, based on the enormous potential of health-care spending (about 13%) of GDP.
The acquisition of WEB-MD (or merger), combined with the players involved (MSFT, XCIT, INTC etc.), along with other strategic acquisitions (look at rxmed.com), along with technological advances in medicine, the aging population, a much more net-savvy patient population,and demands to reduce health care costs, augur well for the near future.
