Dr. Patricia Hayes, Chief Medical Officer at Imagine Pediatrics, joins us to explore why pediatric care deserts are about more than the number of doctors or distance to a hospital, and what families experience when the right care isn’t available at the right time. We’ll discuss how technology, virtual and in-home care, data, and outcome-based payment can come together to create a more connected model of care for medically complex children.

We’ll discuss why layered security, ongoing workforce awareness, and a culture of cybersecurity are becoming essential to protecting healthcare organizations and the data they hold.
