Description

As the health care system moves from volume-based care to value-based care and consumers take charge of their care, alternative delivery settings, such as retail-based clinics, are emerging and flourishing. This session will provide an overview of the role of retail clinics and non-physician providers and explore the benefits of the various strategic partnerships between retail clinics and health systems, employers, and other partners.
