Testimonials
“I think understanding the value of health care delivery is extraordinarily important. Too often we focus on quality without considering the cost component in the care that we provide, and frankly, how to do that, not just beyond the single patient that we're seeing in any one encounter, but really from a population health standpoint. So I think greater understanding, greater knowledge of what it means to deliver value in health care is of preeminent importance. And whether you are a generalist or a specialist, I think these opportunities really afford the opportunity to be exposed to greater knowledge in the delivery of value in health care, and that's really what we're all about.”

“I think a lot of times, we all function in our own little silo, and with Cardiorenal metabolic it's really important for all the sub specialties to come together, along with primary care providers, to try to move towards a more holistic model of care, and the value-based model of care, which brings multi-disciplinary teams along with payers and policy makers together, is going to be really instrumental for this.”
