Righttime CEO Shares Expertise at Urgent Care Association of America Fall Conference

Glendale, AZ– (October 3-5, 2013)

Robert G Graw, Jr., Chief Executive Officer of Righttime Medical Care, shared his expertise with colleagues at the Urgent Care Association of America’s (UCAOA) Fall Conference in Glendale, Arizona last weekend. The event attracted hundreds of urgent care professional from throughout the United States wishing to advance their skills and network with colleagues.

The implementation of the Affordable Healthcare Act (also referred to as Obamacare) will likely change the delivery of healthcare in a variety of ways. How will it affect Urgent Care? The title of Dr. Graw’s presentation, “Partnering Effectively From Network Participation to Data Flow: Post-Health Reform Competitive Landscape and Where will Urgent Care Fit In?” addressed some of those issues.  Over the past 25 years Dr. Graw has been a pioneer in delivering Urgent Care in Maryland. Starting with a single location in Annapolis, the practice founded by physicians has expanded to ten facilities serving Anne Arundel, Frederick, Howard, and Montgomery counties and is still growing.  In his remarks, Dr. Graw urged his colleagues to cooperate and integrate with community partners and to learn who will be affected by health care reform in the coming years. “If you fail to remain aware of what is happening in today’s dynamic healthcare environment,” says Dr. Graw, “you won’t be able to fully optimize opportunities to improve the quality and delivery of Urgent Care.”
