The American healthcare system is fragmented and difficult for many patients to navigate. The average Medicare patient sees seven different doctors, according to the New England Journal of Medicine, and patients with multiple chronic conditions may see up to 16 physicians annually. It’s easy for important aspects of a patient’s medical history or personal care preferences to fall through the cracks. A lack of care coordination leads to medical errors, higher costs, and unnecessary pain for patients and their families.

Increased communication between patients and providers, stronger record keeping, and more efficient, patient-centered care can reduce harm while making healthcare more reliable and accessible.
