As of press time, COVID-19 cases were dropping, and more restrictions were being lifted every day. And SCAN headquarters had just reopened (cue the confetti!). You may not know this, but I started working at SCAN during the height of the pandemic. So, I’m thrilled to be meeting with my colleagues in person!
I’m also glad to see that people are returning to healthy activities, like going back to the gym and scheduling preventive care appointments. As a physician and a healthcare executive, I see how hard doctors’ offices are working to keep up with the sudden demand for appointments. This goes for mental health professionals as well—especially with so many of us needing extra support after the past two years.
That’s why it’s so important to me that you are able to get the care and service you need, when you need it. Please let us know if SCAN can help. For more immediate help, call Member Services. And if there’s something you think I should be aware of—good or bad—feel free to email me directly at sjain@scanhealthplan.com.
Warm wishes,
Sachin H. Jain, MD, MBA, FACP
