Nominate a Colleague for HPSM’s PCP Spotlight

Primary care is the backbone of our network, and one of the ways we celebrate the primary care providers (PCPs) on the front lines of this work is through our HEALTHmattersMD PCP Spotlight. This series highlights the exemplary work being done by HPSM’s network PCPs in service to our community.

Read some of our past PCP spotlights:

  • Dr. Clarissa Kripke helps people with disabilities live more independently — at home and in the world
  • Dr. Maria Osmena reveals how LiveWell Medical Clinic more than doubled their base capitation payments in quality and access bonuses through HPSM’s Benchmark P4P Program

When you fill out the nomination form, include your nominee’s name and specialty plus a brief description of how they have helped advanced HPSM’s mission of ensuring access to high-quality care, services and supports for San Mateo County’s most vulnerable and underserved residents.

If you have any questions or want support in highlighting a colleague, please contact HPSM Provider Services by email or by calling 650-616-2106.
