This episode is co-sponsored by HMA and the Hawaii State Rural Health Association as part of our Gubernatorial Candidate Series. Candidates were given the opportunity to answer questions posed by members of both organizations, providing the community an introduction to the candidates and their positions on healthcare issues which affect physicians, patients and community health.  Each episode begins with an opening statement from the candidate, followed by a question and answer section and the candidate’s closing remarks. Episodes will be released in the order in which they were recorded.
