Host David Harlow sits down with Mark Masselli, CEO, Community Health Centers. Mark recounts the impressive history of the large multi-site Connecticut-based Community Health Center, which he cofounded, from its humble origins as a free clinic in the 1970s (“Kid … Have you got a license?”) to its current status as an integrated primary care powerhouse with research and training arms. With nearly 800,000 patient visits per year, the organization maintained visit volume as the COVID-19 pandemic hit and the CHC transitioned to telemedicine. Listen in on our conversation about building a brick and mortar community health system, the first nurse practitioner residency program in the country, a national virtual specialty referral network serving 1.3 million patients in safety-net settings, and how a post-COVID-19 community health center can best serve its patients.
