The "silver tsunami" of Baby Boomers aging into Medicare is driving a fundamental restructuring of our health care system. Their sheer numbers will make the current system unsustainable. Boomers will harness the political system to demand better services as they age.
With more than 35 years of experience practicing internal medicine, palliative care and hospice, and as a healthcare innovator with a national reputation, Dr. Brad Stuart is a leading voice in delivery system redesign movement. His career-long commitment to improving clinical and economic outcomes by promoting dignity, choice and responsibility has driven the growth and development of a national model now adopted by the American Hospital Association and many US health systems.
Weinstein Hospice invites everyone in the medical community to this free program to hear what Forbes magazine calls:
