PORTLAND, Ore., May 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- WEGO Health is now an official partner of HealthSparq's What's The Fix? (#WTFix) conference [Register Here], adding the power of the company's 100,000 patient leaders, experts and advocates to a conference that will show how everyday people can change our broken health care system.
The conference will highlight stories from people like Dana Lewis and Morgan Gleason, and focus on how to make meaningful changes to help the system, while moving away from the classic "What the health care?" moments that plague health care today. Examples of those commitments include more powerful patient advocacy and leveraging WEGO Health's platform to better understand the patient experience and make appropriate changes.
Industry leaders, everyday people, caregivers, and those who feel powerless in the health care industry alike can get involved in the conference in the following ways:
"As a nurse, I always knew there were challenges in health care, but as a mom I realized just how challenging they are," said What's The Fix? speaker Amy Gleason, who is also a nurse, tech entrepreneur, and mom to fellow conference speaker Morgan Gleason. "Having WEGO Health share their perspective about the importance of the patient voice in the health care industry is a mission I'm very aligned with!"
WEGO Health and HealthSparq invite anyone who interacts with the health care system to make a commitment to change health care. Register to participate in What's The Fix? via livestream at: whatsthefix.info.
