Dora Anne Mils, M.D., M.P.H., FAAP, vice president for Clinical Affairs, co-chaired Quality Counts 2015, Maine鈥檚 largest one-day health conference, on April 1, 2015.
Held at the Augusta Civic Center, this year鈥檚 conference drew nearly 1,200 people from across Maine and featured noted Boston surgeon and widely acclaimed author Atul Gawande, M.D., as well as Anne Weiss, a director of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.

Mills worked for a year with co-chair Andy Webber, CEO of the Maine Health Management Coalition, as well as the conference鈥檚 hosting organization, Maine Quality Counts, and its CEO, Lisa Letourneau, M.D., M.P.H.
Over 25 people from 新香港六合彩资料 attended, including Deans Betsy Francis Connolly, Ph.D., OTR, FAOTA, and Gayle Brazeau, Ph.D., and a number of faculty presented at breakout sessions.
