Chief Medical Officer, Medically Home

Eliza “Pippa” Shulman, DO, MPH is the Chief Medical Officer of Medically Home, which operates a scaled model of decentralized care for patients with serious or complex illnesses with health systems, physician groups and payers. Using its clinical, logistical and technological model, emergency and hospital care can safely be provided to patients in their homes. Medically Home simultaneously augments and challenges traditional brick-and-mortar healthcare delivery, adding flexible capacity for hospitals while demonstrating better outcomes for patients including lower readmission rates and fewer falls.

Pippa is the clinical architect of Medically Home’s program, leveraging her experience so that patients are able to access needed hospital care from home.

Pippa’s leadership role at Medically Home is a natural outgrowth of a career focused on putting patients at the center of care. Before joining Medically Home Pippa led the Center for Healthcare Innovation at Atrius Health, charged with identifying, testing and implementing novel care delivery solutions as part of the largest independent multi-specialty medical group in the Northeast. Prior to that, Pippa was the Chief of Geriatrics and Palliative Care at Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates; tasked with leading value-based care initiatives as part of the ACO as well as multiple improvement efforts in home care, extended care facilities, ambulatory, and palliative care services.

Dr. Shulman is triple boarded in family medicine, preventive medicine, and hospice and palliative medicine. She is a graduate of the combined NH-Dartmouth Family Medicine Residency and Dartmouth Hitchcock Leadership Preventive Medicine Residency, which is focused on developing physicians to lead change and improve systems of care. Pippa is the president-elect of the American Academy of Homecare Medicine.
