Mara McDermott on What's Next for the Value Based Care Coalition
Next Gen ACO recently re-branded as the Value Based Care Coalition. To learn more about the organization's new phase, we spoke with executive director Mara McDermott.
In addition to shining a light on health disparities, medical misinformation, and public health infrastructure, the COVID-19 pandemic has also propelled calls for the transition to value-based care in the United States.
