Yeah, nothing's going to happen. Compliance costs are too high for any of Silicon Valley's business models to work.

I could see Big Tech enter in other areas (Apple Watch and and their research app are promising)
Trying to change something like the hyper regulated, hyper stagnant, special-interest dominated US healthcare system, is a folly of an idea. You kill it instead by routing around it with new solutions wherever possible.
Simple example: the rapidly growing market for direct primary care subscription services [1]. Pair that up with guaranteed catastrophic coverage for all by the US Govt or state governments, and the US healthcare system as we know it is dead due to a simple route around that would dramatically lower costs. It's far easier to implode a failed bureacracy by replacing it in that manner, than by trying to change the existing bureacracy. You see that in everything from old media (which held a cartel stranglehold on broadcast access, the Internet routed around them), to the taxi medallion cartels (which Uber & Lyft murdered by routing around them instead of trying to convince them to change).

2/3 of healthcare is paper pushing, the easiest thing the tech community can automate is boring old CRUD paper pushing. I hope one day we as consumers have the chance to get a USB stick to store and retain our own medical records. Walk into dr's office / hospital, hand over device, boom their is your whole history including previous surgeries, allergies, etc. Whatever is done gets imprinted on device, walk out with an updated history. That is some seriously productive low-hanging fruit.
a) Losing it should not expose your entire medical history to whoever picks it up
b) Losing it should not mean losing your data forever. Giving the consumer the responsibility for backups is not a solution either, since those can be lost or stolen as well.
c) It has to be tied to the person's identity, so you can't borrow/steal your friend's to get meds
d) Can't be tampered with or forged to fake conditions or clear conditions
e) Records who edits it, when, and a diff of changes.
f) Records who reads it, and when
g) Resistant to physical damage or water. I should be able to go swimming with this device or have it go through the wash without worrying about its safety.
These are all pretty hard problems on their own, and together, you'd have to design pretty much the world's safest storage device. If it existed, I'd put my SSH keys on it too!
