Creating a Virtual Multi-Specialty
Physician Network: A Payor-Provider Collaborative

A collaboration between Adventist Health and Blue Shield of California is improving access to specialist care and reducing inefficiencies through virtual telehealth visits.

The nine-site program, which launched in March and includes 13 specialties, will expand to an additional 16 sites by the end of this year.

During Creating a Virtual Multi-Specialty Physician Network: A Payor-Provider Collaborative, an August 20th webinar, Robert Marchuk, vice president of ancillary services, Adventist Health, Christine Martin, director of operations, Adventist Health, and Lisa Williams, senior director of strategic integration and execution, healthcare quality and affordability, Blue Shield of California, will share the inside details on the collaboration and the shared mission and values of the organizations that is leading to the program's success.
