Healthbox Salt Lake City plans to capitalize on the intense market pressure to think differently about how to solve critical challenges in the healthcare industry. In particular, the partnership of Intermountain Healthcare, BD and HealthEquity is focused on the rising role of the consumer in healthcare and the applicability of data analyses in improving clinical decision-making.
