The COVID-19 pandemic shed light on the critical challenges hospitals face when it comes to transferring patients to facilities that can provide a higher level of care. However, this issue existed long before the pandemic. Cheryl Dalton-Norman, president of Conduit Health Partners, recognized this problem and set out to solve it back in 2017. Her nurse-first triage and transfer service aimed to streamline patient transfers and ensure timely access to appropriate care.
At Conduit Health Partners, we’re proud to partner with Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) to help improve access to care for their patient population.
In an article with MedCity News, “Key to Health System Success: An Entrepreneurial Mindset,” Cheryl Dalton-Norman, Conduit President, shares that incorporating elements of risk that complement a health system’s vision, health care leaders can drive a sustainable growth strategy that benefits patients and staff and better positions the organization for the future.

Your employees can generate unnecessary costs to your business without even knowing it. The tradition of “heading to the emergency department” isn’t always the best choice, but people often don’t know where else to turn when they need medical assistance (or think they do). These ED visits are the costliest option for your employees and your company, and may be unnecessary.
