Colleen Reitan Health Quotations

(Hatch) really views health plans as playing a very narrow role. We have an eye towards the long-term determinants of health care costs. We think it is central to the mission of the organization.

Everyone knows that the current system is not working very well. Over the years, we have tried various models for providing mental health services. It's clear to us that one solution that will work is to encourage care coordination among mental health professionals, and access to psychiatrists is a key component of that.

Ultimately, the test is whether we've achieved better access to lower cost quality health care in that region and we think we actually have done that.
