One of the Top Ways to Fix a Broken U.S. Healthcare System

With a broken healthcare system in desperate need of repair, primary care companies have stepped in to help. Making matters worse, only 55% of recommended preventative services are being delivered to patients with the current healthcare system. Plus, there’s limited patient care coordination between visits. There’s also limited access to additional services like home-based care, medication management, and behavioral health. To help change that, some health companies are providing a broader range of services not traditionally found under one clinic group, including Skylight Health Group Inc. (TSXV:SHG)(OTCQX:SHGFF), Oak Street Health Inc. (NYSE:OSH), WELL Health Technologies Corp. (TSX:WELL)(OTC:WLYYF), Privia Health Group Inc. (NASDAQ:PRVA), and Agilion Health Inc. (NYSE:AGL).
