Life Backup Plan Chief Medical Officer Dr. Allison Lamont, M.D., was featured in Doctors Magazine’s expert Q&A, “5 Ways to Build Successful Interdisciplinary Networking Connections for Physicians.”
In her contribution, “Unite Through Healthcare Advocacy,” Dr. Lamont explains how involvement in healthcare advocacy can bring physicians, healthcare professionals, administrators and other stakeholders together around issues that affect both patients and the broader healthcare system.
