Armstrong leaving Bloomberg News for new journalism org

Drew Armstrong, senior health care editor at Bloomberg News, is leaving the organization to help lead an unnamed journalism organization.

“It’s a news organization that in a few years has established itself as a must-read in its space – with lots of room to expand in many directions,” he wrote on Twitter.

Before becoming senior health care editor, he had been a team leader,  managing a team of 10 reporters and editors covering the health industry, mergers and acquisitions, policy, medicine and breaking news out of the New York City bureau.

He also spent more than four years covering health policy or the pharmaceutical industry for Bloomberg.

Before Bloomberg, he worked at Congressional Quarterly.
