INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- hc1, the leader in critical insight, analytics, and solutions for precision health that power high-value health care, announced today that Stephen K. Klasko, MD, MBA, will be the keynote speaker during its Precision Health Virtual Summit scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 17 and Wednesday, Nov. 18. This special two-day summit hosted by hc1 in partnership with Becker's Healthcare will bring together healthcare leaders and experts to focus on the changes our care delivery system needs as it transitions from fee-for-service to value-based care reimbursement models.
Dr. Klasko is the President and Chief Executive Officer of Thomas Jefferson University and Jefferson Health. His session, "Beyond Genomics and Cell Therapy," will discuss health care's transition from costly and fragmented "sick care" to affordable, personalized and preventive care.

"I'm excited to be partnering with hc1 and Becker's for this event."

He has authored and co-authored six books, including two in 2020: Unhealthcare: A Manifesto for Health Assurance with Hemant Tenaja and Patient No Longer: Why Healthcare Must Deliver the Care Experience That Consumers Want and Expect with Ryan Donohue.
"As one of the most influential healthcare visionaries, Dr. Klasko is the ideal keynote speaker to share a look into the future of healthcare at our Precision Health Virtual Summit," said Brad Bostic, Chairman and CEO of hc1. "It is hc1's goal to advance the promise of precision health, and those attending will walk away from Dr. Klasko's presentation with deep insights into the changes sweeping through the health care industry as value-based care models continue to expand."
