Papa will go a long way to stem the tide of this epidemic and the associated expense to health plans and employers."

Hector graduated with his Bachelor of Arts in English from the University of Illinois and earned his MBA from the Lake Forest Graduate School of Management, with a concentration in healthcare administration.
