  15. Translating the Vision into Reality • Utilized Technical Experts • Received over 12 different plans/ recommendations from stakeholders and interested parties across the state • Provided an open dialogue with members of collaborative and the public to shape the blueprint for redesign • Developed Concept Paper for a Redesigned Health Care System for Region 1
