Our participation in the Baltimore Business Journal’s 'Future of Health Care' discussion brought valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities from the rural health perspective. Ken Kozel, President and CEO of UM Shore Regional Health, shared how we have pushed for new models of care, like freestanding emergency centers, as well as population health initiatives like our Shore Community Outreach Team that bring care directly to the patient. We’re proud to be part of shaping the future of health care for our communities as Maryland’s health care champion. Thank you BBJ for having us! #ABetterStateOfCare
