Investing in practice leaders

Hartford HealthCare Medical Group primary care practice managers came together Oct. 29 at Quinnipiac University for the Primary Care Leadership Summit, a day focused on professional development, collaboration and recognition. Organized by medical group executive leaders, the event reflects our People Promise commitment to investing in leaders.
