"Sutter Health and Lyft are teaming up to allow the health system’s facilities to roll out individualized transportation services for both patients and staff members.

The individualized approach allows for a variety of point solutions that can meet very specific needs of a specific region, Megan Callahan, vice president of healthcare at Lyft, told FierceHealthcare."
