Founder and CEO of a leading care coordination technology company discusses the buzz about the new Direct Contracting Model.

Hu founded CarePort while she was a graduate student at Harvard. The care coordination technology company was acquired a second time last fall by Wellsky, a healthcare technology company for $1.35 billion.
