BACKGROUND: A division of Partners HealthCare and affiliated with Harvard Medical School's largest teaching hospitals, the sponsor of this event - Center for Connected Health - is creating new care models as health care moves outside the hospital and clinic and into day-to-day life. The Center is empowering people and enabling them to manage chronic conditions, maintain health and wellness and age independently. Guided by a relentless focus on what works and what does not, the Center aims to change the way doctors and nurses deliver services even as it also expands the ability of patients to manage their own health.
