The Way Forward: Reform's New Focus on Health and Wellness, Independent Aging, Chronic Condition Self-Care and the Tools That Support Them

The Center for Connected Health, a division of Partners HealthCare, hosts the 7th annual Connected Health Symposium, October 21-22, 2010. This year's Symposium will map the way ahead.

Breakout sessions and keynote presentations will take a hard look at payment reform, provider accountability and patient self-management and technology tools available and in development to address these pressing issues.
