6. How Does Harmony Compare?

7. A Medical General Contractor
Our competitors traditional DM program focuses on one disease, like hypertension or diabetes. One nurse focuses on these “disease states” and this nurse maybe classified as a specialist but really how special is it to only know a lot about such a narrow scope of topics. It would be like hiring an electrician to remodel your entire home or kitchen. Would you trust them? Are they going to know how to do plumbing and flooring? Probably not.
