Their nursing backgrounds coupled with their strong business and public health experiences in ambulatory care provides a foundation for understanding critical segments of the industry where change is sweeping through the care delivery model. ! . Improving Quality in the Outpatient Setting provides both a broad visionary direction for where we need to go in outpatient care management but also provides the details which must be considered as part of our efforts to lead the future of healthcare delivery. --Kevin Fickenscher MD, from the Foreword
