MedQuest presented their proposed palliative care benefit, a first-of-its kind in the country at our Hawaii Palliative Care Virtual Summit in June of 2021.
A MedQUEST palliative care benefit could significantly improve how we in Hawai‘i care for some of our most complex and seriously ill family, friends, and neighbors.
MedQUEST presented their analysis and benefit design concepts at the June 26, 2021 Hawaii Palliative Care Virtual Summit.
