October 1st, 2018 | ArchiveAs AHP expands its provider network both in terms of numbers and geographic footprint, we recognized the importance of growing and strengthening our leadership infrastructure for care management. Two recent promotions in our care management team will ensure that the team continues to function effectively as members of our practices’ care teams as they benefit from more direct leadership and clinical supervision.
