Read more...Startups have emerged to focus on changing the way people are being cared for, as they build out tools, platforms, mobile applications for prevention, monitoring or recovery. At Vator Splash Health 2015, held last February 2015, Jason Torres, Partner and COO of Mansa Capital Management moderated the panel discussing the "New care delivery model". On the panel were Dr. Katrina Firlik, Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer of HealthPrize; Ron Gutman, CEO of HealthTap; and Adam Jackson, Founder and CEO of Doctor on Demand.
