"TRHC's CAP Meeting provides an opportunity to bring together medical directors from some of the leading PACE programs in the country to share insights and learn about findings from PACE-related research," said Brian Adams, President and Interim CEO of TRHC. "As Interim CEO, I look forward to advancing TRHC's clinical innovation and value to our PACE customers as we work together to drive better program outcomes."
