1/ @oliver_kharraz GREAT ARTICLE! We could not agree more. The entire point of care is the development of a trusted relationship. Trust is the currency of care. It is the conduit through which care should be delivered.

2/ the current state of transactional medicine spurred on by Fee for Service has been a growing cancer on the heart and soul of healthcare. Reducing your relationship, your time to simple billable codes and RVU's has destroyed the foundation of trusted primary care relationships

3/ The advent of telemedicine has such promise to enhance access, but that promise cannot be fulfilled without also enhancing relationships. It also speaks to the problem you are trying to solve - if you just want to create access, then bolting on telemedicine can kind of work

4/ Apparently, Zoltar medicine is all the rage now. However, "put a quarter in, get a prescription" is never going to truly solve the many, many issues we face as a country, as providers, and as care givers. It has been bizarrely fascinating seeing those models take off

5/ To me it just highlights the absolute demand that exists for the advantages of this models, but the first iterations are missing what matters most - trusted relationships that can dig into the issues that cause the need to access care in the first place

6/ Digital enhancements to how you interact with your physician, and increasingly more importantly your entire personal care team, will be the wave of the future. This allows the best of the digital access with the human touch. Expanding the reach and capability of the care team

7/ Crossover Health has always been about the relationships that can be created first thru a great in person experience, and now thru a great onlin "connection" for every member. This is why we acquired Sherpaa, this is why we build our own tech, and this is how we power our care

8/ Can't wait to see people evolve past these 1.0 efforts into the next generation Primary Health models that enhance relationships through the technology, improve the connections to care, and deliver outsized results that can scale the human touch.

9/ Very proud and thankful for all of our providers, care team members, and others who support the build out of an entirely new Connected System of Health. Grateful for the clients who share our vision and are willing to invest with us to pull this future forward.

10/ Crossover represents this future. When you graduate past access with random physicians for 10 minutes and want to get into longitudinal care models that can actually lower cost, increase quality, and deliver incredible engagement - we will be ready for you. #Inevitable
