Number one in patient experience, number one, employee engagement, number one in physician engagement, and financially healthy in a rough time for healthcare. All those came true because of our partnership with Planetree.

If other healthcare institutions are looking for a model of care to help them strengthen their clinical outcomes, their team member satisfaction, improve their community followership, and improve philanthropy, I would say this is absolutely the model. Our outcomes have been beyond what we could've ever imagined.
