\"\"<\/p>\n

I am a strategic healthcare executive with deep operational experience and a track record of leading clinical transformation and award-winning clinical care innovation. Colleagues know me as a results-driven professional with over 15 years of experience leading healthcare strategy, implementation, evaluation and sustainability. I am passionate about optimizing patient care through physician engagement, service integration, technology and strategic partnerships.<\/p>\n

The Problem<\/u><\/p>\n

There is a clear gap in care from a health equity perspective and access to timely quality clinical care for specific disorders. A number of applications are available to guide a provider through the clinical care based on a guideline, however, this can be enhanced exponentially by introducing a platform model which will lead to better clinical outcomes for ALL.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We are at the right moment in time, with the right technology, expertise and a burning platform to establish a goal of setting up such a platform and ensure the disruption of the traditional clinical research model, which leads to delays in access to quality care and does not address health equity.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The above example only include three major health issues facing us globally.\u00a0 The market for this type of platform is much larger when looking at other chronic diseases, such heart disease, cancer care, mental health and substance disorders, dementia etc. On a regular basis more evidence through research is generated, however it is inaccessible to a common provider, especially in the primary care or community setting.<\/p>\n

\"\"This is the initial concept of a platform that would further validate evidence based practice within a clinical environment and make it relevant for a diverse population.<\/p>\n
