The future of DTC should foster understanding and trust, as well as improving clinical conversations.
Healing the Sick Care System: Why People Matter, a new book from FINN Partners chair global health and purpose Gil Bashe, says that the current healthcare system is not broken because it lacks innovation, talent or investment, but because it has lost sight of the people it exists to serve.
Jeff Smokler, former president at healthcare specialist imre, joins Washington-based Avoq to head its PA practice.
