Patrick J. Kennedy was present a the birth of a worldwide movement in healthcare in 2006, when Dan Pelino and Dr. Paul Grundy came to his office and enlisted his worldwide support for better access for all and the primary care medical home movement.
That relationship endures and in fact has been a powerful asset as Patrick J. Kennedy pushes forward his momentum for parity in mental healthcare and substance abuse treatment in America and abroad.
On Tuesday, June 11, Patrick J. Kennedy stated that when Dan Pelino decided to put together a book, he was “honored to play a small part in that effort.”
Patrick J. Kennedy wrote the Foreword for Trusted Healers, as well as the cover quote “You’ll never look at healthcare the same way again.”
“Your book,” he said at the Forum, “is a story of many narratives of how we get to a better understanding of transformation in our healthcare system.”
Trusted Healers will be released September 10, 2019. Guests at the Kennedy Forum received Advance Review Copies of the book thanks to the generosity of Innovaccer, NexJ Health, and Maximus sponsorships.
