QUOTE ATTRIBUTABLE TO MELANIE MATTHEWS, HIN EXECUTIVE VP AND COO:
Click here for Melanie Matthews's profile.
“Many healthcare payors and purchasers are putting a price on the medical home by reimbursing physicians for care coordination and rewarding them when they meet standards of care, particularly for their patients with chronic illness. Don't miss this opportunity to learn how IBM is investing in the PCMH to improve healthcare delivery and efficiency for its 500,000 employees, and why Aetna is focusing on patient-centered care for the long haul."
