Meena Mallipeddi, CEO and Co-Founder of AmplifyMD, said, “Steve and Rod bring unmatched health system experience at a time when virtual care is shifting from a temporary solution to a core clinical strategy. Their guidance will be critical as we help hospitals reimagine physician services amid workforce challenges.” Dr. Klasko, a healthcare futurist, former President and CEO of Thomas Jefferson University and Jefferson Health, and current Executive in Residence at General Catalyst, said, “The organizations that succeed will not be those offering the largest signing bonuses. They will be the ones embedding specialty coverage into the EHR as a constant, reliable service. AmplifyMD is leading that change.”
