Panel Discussion
Panel discussion led by @APHSA1’s @MsnWareing at the @HealthITCONNECT conference. Integrated service delivery rests on local/state agencies using same vocabulary: what do you mean by a provider? Partner? CBO? Is staff referring to the right/best place? #StateHIT pic.twitter.com/BoDC8H9VRn
