The Impact of Cost-of-Care Conversations

 

Recognize the importance of cost-of-care conversations and identify resources to facilitate these discussions with help from Gwen Darien, executive vice president at the National Patient Advocate Foundation, and Dr.  Jessica Dine, Associate Professor and Chief of the division of Pulmonology and Critical Care at Perelman School of Medicine.  We review barriers to cost-of-care conversations and identify tools to help make these conversations a part of routine care discussions.
