Leaders from University of Rochester Medical Center, Modivcare, DexCare, Five Star Bank and Verizon Business got together at ViVE 2024 to share their story.

Building a national blueprint
“Local banks and health care providers are trusted institutions – bringing them together to reach more people and to deliver more care is essential to creating healthier communities. A digital visit is a building block for patients to regain control of their wellness, and an opportunity for health systems to expand their footprint to deliver more care and services.”
