Last night, we hosted an excellent business mixer at the Edison restaurant in Disney Springs to hear how Florida Blue and our GuideWell family of companies are striving to create a harmonized healthcare experience for our members and the many communities we serve. The evening was spent mingling and networking with local Central Florida business and community leaders, and hearing from an esteemed group of expert panelists comprised of Jay Groves, Executive Director of the Culinary Health Institute at 4Roots Farm, Nancy Edwards Molello, Executive Director of the Gingsburg Institute for Health Equity at Nemours, Glen R. Providence, Executive Director at Hebni Nutrition Consultants, Inc., and Mark Shamley, MBA, Vice President of Community Impact with Lift Orlando. I wish to thank each of them for their thoughtful conversations on how they work together to create impactful synergies and valuable partnerships to help make the harmonized healthcare experience, or as I like to say “humanized healthcare,” a reality. We still have work to do, but together we can make a difference in transforming the future of healthcare for all! #HarmonizedHealthcare #HumanizedHealthcare #CommunityPartnerships #CommunityHealth
