“The United States has a broken healthcare system. The current system compensates providers for taking care of people who are sick. We need a healthcare system that compensates providers for making patients better. My goal is to fix the broken system.”
She strives to close the gap in healthcare disparities by addressing obesity, diabetes, hypertension and social determinants of health. She believes we have a broken healthcare system. An ideal system would reward providers based on improved health outcomes for patients. With 140 million Americans below the poverty line, addressing healthcare outcomes is her focus.
