He was the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) of one the largest network of Community Clinics in San Diego County, the Council of Community Clinics and was the publicly elected Chairman of the Board of Directors for Palomar Health, the largest Public Hospital District in California. As a result of his personal health transformation he now advocates for population and regional health transformation and is passionate about putting the health back into healthcare and keeping the patient at the center of their care.

The panel discussions that follow include a focus on new care delivery models as well as innovative approaches that have been developed and implemented by various organizations. The panels on Saturday July18th include:
