Leapfrog established the PAC in 2009 to give healthcare companies a structured interactive forum for dialogue between the industry and Leapfrog’s Management and Board of Directors.
This collaboration comes at a critical time for healthcare. Research shows that nearly one in four hospitalized patients will experience a harm event, 25% of which are preventable. Exacerbating this is the growing workforce shortage, with a projected shortfall of 307,010 registered nurses by 2027 and up to 139,000 physicians by 2033.
