Jason Wasfy, MD, from Massachusetts General Hospital discussed work that his institution has done to implement this system and how it has helped patients get the care they want from doctors they know without having to go to new doctors depending on their condition. This presentation was made during the American Heart Association's annual meeting in Orlando, with Wasfy noting that in some cases sending patients to speicialists was still an important part of the medical treatment process.
