  • Invested in and supported 10 innovative partnerships between physical and behavioral health providers to test new ways of providing whole person care to individuals with both a physical chronic disease and mental health or substance use disorder (SUD) diagnosis.
  • Supported the statewide initiative to develop care coordination standards for the use of PointClickCare (formerly Collective Medical) which focused on following up with patients after an emergency room visit or hospitalization discharge.
  • Lead the implementation of the Care Connect Community Hub, a community-based care coordination initiative.

“We are deeply grateful to Michael for his many contributions to HealthierHere, our partners, and community. I am confident our paths will continue to cross, and we look forward to building forward on our relationship as he brings his leadership and expertise to Comagine Health in this exciting new chapter of his career,” said John Kim, CEO of HealthierHere.
