Page 2 of 3 "This initiative is indicative of what we can achieve when the health
care community comes together to solve a problem. The synergy of these
efforts doesn’t just solve a problem, it creates a model of health care
delivery that is replicable elsewhere,” said Chris Allen, Executive
Director and CEO of the Health Authority. “We are pleased with the
leadership of St. John Health and the many community organizations that
have made this initiative possible.”
“The collaborative effort undertaken on Detroit’s East Side can be a
model for development of the medical home for families in the area,”
explained Adam Jablonowski, Executive Director of the Wayne County
Medical Society. Jablonowski also serves as Chair of the Health
Authority’s Provider Advisory Committee. “Now, we must move forward
with the training of more primary care physicians to meet the challenge
of delivering the care.”
