The Patient-Centric Health Forum

As part of Patient-Centric and Prospective Medicine program, we have created The Patient-Centric Health Forum, which will develop the "business" models for promoting the selection, use of and payment for cutting edge medical tools that promotes personalized strategic prevention and treatment of disease among consumers, employers and health plans. It includes heads of academic medical centers, health plans, outcomes researchers, venture capitalists and biopharmaceutical firms. Mark McClellan, former Medicare administrator and FDA commissioner, will chair the group.
