Date: Monday, September 30, 2024
Time: 2 - 3 p.m.
Location: Zoom

Are you wondering how local leaders use policy to best advocate for patient needs? 

Do you hope to practice people-centered care in communities where healthy lifestyles are feasible and sustainable?

Want to understand how local and state governments keep access to medical and behavioral health care, long-term services and supports, and key nutritional and financial benefits readily available?

If so, join us for the next HMS Center for Primary Care Grand Rounds. We are excited to have wonderful local leaders as panelists:

  • Kate Walsh, MPH, Secretary of Health and Human Services for Massachusetts, leads one of the strongest health and human services operations in the country
  • Katherine Gergen Barnett, MD, Vice Chair of Primary Care Innovation and Transformation in the Department of Family Medicine at Boston Medical Center, a national expert in health care policy and delivery, medical training and community engagement.

They'll talk about health care hot topics in the state of Massachusetts such as health inequality and what policy changes could have a significant impact in health care. There will also be time for Q&A.
