Practice Transformation
About Practice Transformation
Network members engaged in Practice Transformation aim to transform how health care (medical, oral, behavioral health, and all other spheres) can result in better relationships between patients and providers, optimize health outcomes, and work to be the most efficient in health care costs. Practice Transformation brings together providers from across practices and settings, including those who provide frontline care and those who work behind the scenes.
