As a passionate advocate for health equity and a seasoned expert in healthcare transformation, I am eager to continue my service on the Board of PAs in Virtual Medicine and Telemedicine (PAVMT). My commitment to integrating innovative solutions into healthcare systems uniquely positions me to further PAVMT's mission to enhance access and outcomes through telemedicine.
Throughout my career, I have spearheaded initiatives that bridge gaps in healthcare accessibility and quality, particularly for underserved populations. At Clinical Insighters, I led the development and implementation of Medicaid's regional managed care health equity action strategy. This role amplified my ability to execute programs that cater to diverse community needs, ensuring equitable healthcare delivery across urban and rural landscapes.
My tenure as Vice President of Clinical Services at Care on Location further honed my skills in telehealth operations and strategic growth, where I spearheaded telemedicine services that significantly improved patient care for Medicaid members across Colorado. These experiences have provided me with a profound understanding of the challenges and opportunities in virtual medicine, driving my desire to advocate for and implement telehealth innovations that ensure quality and inclusive patient care.
As President of PAVMT, I have already set in motion several strategic initiatives aimed at expanding our reach and impact. My leadership has been instrumental in restructuring our committees and enhancing member engagement and professional development. Looking ahead, I aim to leverage my network and partnerships to forge stronger connections with industry stakeholders, ensuring that PAVMT remains at the forefront of telehealth advocacy and practice.
My unique contributions to PAVMT would not only continue but expand in scope. I plan to introduce more comprehensive data-driven strategies and foster collaborative relationships that facilitate broader access to telemed.
