Name
More Than Medicine: The Essential Role of Physicians in Integrated Care
Description
A panel of 2 Primary Care Physicians and 2 Psychiatrists, all clinically active and with extensive experience in integrated care, will discuss what matters to physicians when working in integrated care. When you have a good day at work, how does integrated care play a role? What are the micro and macro processes that matter? What are the stuck points and challenges? Can we agree on key points for advocacy within CFHA and beyond?
