Health Transformation
We are dedicated to transforming the oral health system of the future into one that is accessible, equitable, and integrated.
To achieve that vision, we collaborate with public and private stakeholders and support individuals, communities, and health systems to create person-centered, integrated systems of care that lead to better health outcomes.
What Do We Mean by Health Transformation?
Our system of care is fragmented — medical, dental, and other areas of health are siloed — and when the system is fragmented, so is the quality and continuity of care that a patient receives. Oftentimes, patients slip through the gaps of the system and are burdened with the responsibility of seeking, managing, and integrating their care.
Instead, equipped with the right tools and incentives, providers and other health care professionals can be stewards for patients by coordinating and providing comprehensive, holistic care. As part of our collaboration with public and private stakeholders, we provide tools and resources — such as patient care frameworks, finances, and data & analytics — to support integrated, person-centered, and equitable care.
Meaningful Change is Possible . . . and It's Happening Now
With our partners, we are designing and creating the health system of the future. Our goal is to elevate the lessons, stories, and data gathered from our ongoing efforts to fuel the health transformation movement in oral health and demonstrate how meaningful change is possible.
