In this episode, we talk about the lifeblood of a Clinically Integrated Network. It’s called Network Integrity. You've definitely heard "Network Integrity" used before, but perhaps you've never dug deep into what it means in practice, in every sense. We first lay out a definition, and then we dive deep to break down Network Integrity's full context. But, rest easy, we won’t just define Network Integrity and call it a day. We’re going to give you the tools you need to optimize your use of and understanding with Network Integrity. Guests Include: Dr. Tarun Kapoor,  Dr. Andy Cohen, and Dr. Chris Pomrink
