Amazon

•  Amazon Comprehend Medical is a new technology launched by Amazon that uses machine learning to analyze medical text and identify necessary information, like patient diagnosis, treatments, and symptoms.
• The program also helps identify patients that may benefit from clinical trials by reading information in their EHR.
• To use the program, healthcare providers must upload EHR data onto Amazon's cloud.
• The software is HIPPA compliant because it does not store data.
• More recently, Amazon has partnered with Cerner, an EHR service provider, to launch Project Apollo, which is a cloud-based healthcare platform.

Microsoft

• Azure API for FHIR is a product by Microsoft that helps "health systems interoperate and share data in the cloud."
• Azure API for FHIR is compatible with EHR. 
• Microsoft also allows secure EHR data to be integrated with Microsoft Teams.
• Microsoft is also focused on using AI in healthcare, security, and developing monitoring devices.
• Microsoft has already had one failure in the healthcare space — HealthVault — which recently shut down. The program focused too much on basic health records, without including the integration of wearable data and the ability to easily share records.
