Managed Care Cast

Patients with Parkinson disease can suffer complications in the hospital if the individualized, highly structured care plans that manage their disease are not followed. We interviewed neurologist Hooman Azmi, MD, the co-author of Parkinson's Disease for the Hospitalist: Managing the Complex Care of a Vulnerable Population, about what it takes to improve patient care for this population. He is the director of the Division of Movement Disorders at Hackensack University Medical Center and is also a member of the neuro-oncology team at the John Theurer Cancer Center at Hackensack UMC.
