Summary/Abstract
Helping patients and consumers lead healthy lives is a massive undertaking that no organization should try to do on its own, Google Health’s Karen DeSalvo, MD, MPH, MSc, said Wednesday at HFMA’s Annual Conference.
“Remember that health is what we do together as a society to create the conditions in which everyone can be healthy,” she said. “No one institution, no one sector can do this alone. To meet the physical, emotional and social needs of people and communities, we're going to have to do it in partnership."
