Moderator: Katie Adams, Senior Reporter, MedCity News Speakers Chris Bowen, CISO and Founder, ClearDATA Joey Johnson, CISO Premise Health 10:15- 11:15 a.m. Reproductive Care is Not Just About Pregnancy and Mother’s Health As states have responded to the fall of Roe with a patchwork of laws aimed at curtailing abortion and reproductive rights, the consequence goes far beyond pregnant women. Already there is evidence that medical residents are not going to states that have restrictions on abortion. Hear from a panel of experts about the unintended consequences and dangers of limiting the decision to end a pregnancy as it relates to our healthcare overall.

Rodgers Health Centerl 11:15- 12:00 p.m. Can Primary Care Only Thrive Within Traditional Healthcare Players? After high-profile stumbles in primary care from the likes of Walmart and Walgreens and the lack of traction in online-only, virtual primary care – think Optum shutting down its virtual care business - the question remains: Is primary care only suited to remaining within legacy health systems, established payers, large employers and traditional independent primary care practices? Hear from primary care experts about the future of primary care and how they are innovating in this field to improve the patient experience and control costs.
