Abner Mason is the Founder and CEO of ConsejoSano (www.ConsejoSano.com), the only patient engagement and care navigation solution designed to help clients activate their multicultural patient populations to better engage with the healthcare system.

ConsejoSano's clients are typically health plans and provider groups serving Medicaid and Medicare Advantage members and patient populations.
