AUSTIN, Texas, June 06, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Iris Plans and Innovista Health Solutions (Innovista) today announce a partnership to deliver Iris Plans’ telehealth Advance Care Planning (ACP) services to support Innovista’s physician partners, starting in Texas.
“Our new partnership with Innovista highlights our continued growth as a company, and most important, represents an excellent opportunity for innovation in patient-centered healthcare,” said Steve Wardle, CEO of Iris Plans. “Both companies share common goals of improving the patient experience in healthcare as well as overall health outcomes, while at the same time reducing overall costs and waste in the healthcare system. Our ACP services help Innovista deliver on these goals.”
