To Share Insights on ChenMed's Transformational Model and Focus on Value

MIAMI, July 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Christopher Chen, CEO of ChenMed, a leading provider of primary care to underserved seniors, will be featured in a "Meet the Primary Care Market Movers" session at the 2022 National Primary Care Transformation Summit. Dr. Chen will be interviewed by Don Crane, summit Co-Chair and former President and CEO, America's Physician Groups, on July 27, 2022, at 10:30 a.m. ET during the virtual conference.

"It is great to have so many different perspectives looking at primary care models in the U.S.," said Christopher Chen, MD. "We need great primary care to be a more common thing in America. At ChenMed, we have turned the traditional model on its head to not just deliver advanced primary care, but offer truly transformative primary care. It's more proactive, more upstream, more holistic and more centered on the primary care physician. I look forward to sharing insights on how our approach is working and how to get more positive change across primary care."

The National Primary Care Transformation Summit features in-depth Interviews with the leaders from the country's most innovative primary care organizations, including leading primary care groups, health systems, employer primary care initiatives, and technology and health care industry disruptors. Dozens of speakers are scheduled to share case studies and other examples of their success during the four-day conference, which will stream virtually July 26-29, 2022.

"This conference is all about innovation, which is why we are so happy to have Dr. Chen share lessons from ChenMed about disrupting health care and taking risk," said Donald Crane, JD, former President and CEO, America's Physician Groups and Summit Co-Chair. "Our attendees will learn about ChenMed's model which reframes the approach to primary care and puts a refreshing emphasis on enabling, training, and equipping the primary care provider as a means to clinical and financial success rather than putting finances ahead of the patient."
