What is the biggest challenge currently facing your industry and how are you responding to it? It can be difficult to access primary care and may take upward of a month (or more) to schedule a primary care physician appointment. As a health care professional, I, alongside my team, am committed to supporting patients on their health journeys. My team not only supports our clinical care team members directly but also ensures we are doing all we can on our end to keep our care convenient and affordable for the communities we serve.
