In response to the building health care crisis, fundamental changes are taking place in the manner in which care is administered. “Patient-centric” systems are evolving in which the patient’s well-being and the patient’s responsibility for his or her own good health are defining treatment and operational policies. In part, this change is made possible by new and emerging technology systems and tools to modernize medical record keeping, transform the exchange of medical information, and revolutionize treatments.

 By following a patient-centric approach, every segment of the health care system will benefit: patient health improves; payers reduce costs and premiums by becoming more efficient; providers improve the quality and safety of their clinical practice; and industry reduces its financial burden to provide health insurance subsidies to employees.

Join us for an interesting discussion with different points of view and learn how this change will occur and the new and emerging technology enablers in the deployment of patient-centered primary care.
