JAN BERGEN. President and CEO of Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health.
On the top challenge
"The most pressing health concern facing our patients is accessibility to high quality, value-driven care that treats the entire person and focuses on health, not illness."
On the hospital's response
"Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health has a broad provider and services network across a four-county area to coordinate and provide access to care facilitated by a singular, integrated EHR.
As an integrated health system, we provide access to the right care, at the right location that also focuses on sustainable costs for the community. As part of Penn Medicine, we are supported by a top research quaternary care university hospital with broadly integrated data systems to support seamless care.
Our approach is patient-centric and value-driven with a passionate commitment to quality and safety. An essential aspect of our success includes collaboration with other community providers and services to address clinical and socioeconomic needs."
