by Puget Sound Business Journal on Wednesday, June 6, 2012

Microsoft Corp. and General Electric Co. said they've completed the creation of their new health-care company — Caradigm — which will be located in City Center Bellevue.

The two companies announced the joint venture late last year, and the company could employ as many as 750 people. Caradigm will be led by CEO Michael Simpson.

The companies announced Wednesday that Lauren Salata has been appointed chief financial officer and Michael Willingham will be quality assurance and regulatory affairs executive. Salata was the CFO at Care Innovations in Roseville, Calif. Willingham worked at Philips Healthcare in Bothell as senior director of quality and regulatory affairs.
