Being bold enough to take on big problems and find big solutions is a required attribute for success in this role. Mr. Duggan will share his insight predicting the look of a “new health care delivery model”, what essential decisions must be made by the various provider groups to survive and thrive during periods of dynamic change and how “health care” will remain a major player in federal and state policy/funding discussions.
