David Feinberg: Proactive interventions are almost always more effective than reactive care delivery

Karen Knudsen shared a post by David Feinberg, Chief Executive Officer at Cerner Corporation, on LinkedIn and added:

“Agree, David! Inspiring concepts put forward by all, toward advancing our shared goals for improving lives.

We all have an important role to play, and ACS is committed to increasing access to cancer prevention and early detection through research, advocacy, and direct patient support.”

Quoting David Feinberg’s post:

“Proactive interventions are almost always more effective than reactive care delivery.

It was great joining our moderator Esther Krofah and Bob Bradway, Karen Knudsen, and Meena Seshamani on the MIGlobal stage today, where we discussed how prevention-focused strategies can improve health outcomes. Thanks to the Milken Institute and everyone else involved in hosting this event!”
