SUMMARY:BRI Virtual Speaker Series - Why Autonomy Matters: The Case for Direct Primary Care with Dr. Shane Purcell
DESCRIPTION:BRI Virtual Event Series - Why Autonomy Matters with Dr. Shane Purcell\n                            Will the future of health care be decided by Congress\, special interest groups\, insurers\, or conglomerates? Or will it instead be physicians who simply decide to practice differently?\n\nWith over 4\,000 practicing firms nationwide\, direct primary care is quietly\, steadily reshaping medicine by offering doctors greater autonomy and patients a better experience. Join Dr. Shane Purcell as he explains what makes DPC different\, what's driving its growing popularity\, and why it deserves a place in every conversation about health care reform. \n                         \n \n                        Name(Required)\n                            \n                            \n                                                    First\n                                                    \n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                            Last\n                                                            \n                                                        \n                            \n                        Email(Required)\n                            \n                        Questions / CommentsHave a question for Dr. Purcell?
