 Docs and Hackers is back in Boston! This time with a special conversation on how startups can help payers. In collaboration with the Harvard Medical School [Center for Primary Care](https://primarycare.hms.harvard.edu/) and [Flare Capital Partners](https://www.flarecapital.com/), venture investor [Dan Gebremedhin](https://www.flarecapital.com/team-member/dan-gebremedhin) will lead a conversation with [Tine Christensen](https://www.linkedin.com/in/tine-christensen-09b8a7/), the Director of Corporate Strategy at Tufts Health Plan. Come to this meetup to share new digital health ideas, ask questions to experts in healthcare, get feedback from the group and potentially form teams.  
   
Technology was supposed to improve healthcare. Unfortunately, it has increased [physician work load](http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/healthcare/317233-doctors-are-increasingly-burnt-out-thanks-to-paperwork), [decreased doctor-patient time](http://annals.org/aim/fullarticle/2546704/allocation-physician-time-ambulatory-practice-time-motion-study-4-specialties) at a [significant cost](https://www.foley.com/stimulus-package-contains-19-billion-for-health-care-technology-spending-and-adoption-of-electronic-health-records-02-18-2009/) to the taxpayer. Docs and Hackers is a group of medical practitioners and technology builders who aim to reverse this trend and accelerate innovation in digital health.
