    I listened to 2 of these podcasts this morning and they really got me excited about the possibilities of the HomeMeds product that Partners in Care Foundation offers for doing medication reviews in the home. I got some great ideas about new ways to market our product. The podcasts were excellent and on-point concerning innovations in the current healthcare arena.
