Today I joined former HHS Secretary Alex Azar during the Lake Nona Impact Forum for an in-depth fireside chat about his experiences and the opportunities and challenges that exist for the health care industry now and in the future.   One thing he shared: we need to do more to address complexity. Whether you’re the HHS Secretary or a grandmother, no one can navigate the health care system alone. We must simplify experiences for those who count on us.   I appreciate Sec. Azar’s wisdom and insight on how we can build a stronger health care system that better serves all Americans.   #Health #HealthCare #HealthCareOnLinkedIn #LNIF #LNIF24 #LakeNona

Federally Qualified Health Centers serve 29 million people in the US today, according to the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC). They're anchors of their communities, and they deserve to be paid equitably, operate in the best way they see fit, and have power in the healthcare ecosystem to make their own choices. They deserve to focus on what matters most: Providing the best whole-person care they can to each patient in their communities. https://lnkd.in/g9ZFCTXT #fqhc #chc #valuebasedcare #healthcareinnovation

📩 In a new letter to Senators Roger Marshall and Bernie Sanders, NACHC expresses support for their Bipartisan Primary Care and Health Care Workforce Act: "Having a usual source of primary care is associated with decreased emergency department use, lower healthcare costs, and improved health outcomes. Health centers are part of the solution to fixing these disparities in access to care. NACHC is thrilled that the Bipartisan Primary Care and Health Care Workforce Act realizes the potential of health centers to improve access to primary care in communities across the country."
