Tray Dunaway

Accurately described as a "Renaissance Physician" and "serial entrepreneur," Tray Dunaway, MD, FACS, CSP, served as a general surgeon for sixteen years in Camden, South Carolina. His career transitioned from practicing surgery to launching a physician education business, predicated on a personally developed physician coding and documentation system. This system not only enhanced both physician and hospital revenue but also set a national compliance standard. Dunaway's true success emerged from improving relationships between physicians, hospitals, and all the "dots of healthcare," facilitating a broad spectrum of business applications impacting the healthcare ecosystem.

Dunaway, recognized as healthcare's first "dotsultant," a visionary connecting various aspects of healthcare, promotes a model called Mutual Value Integration, which enhances communication and business solutions. His expertise now encompasses a greater scope than just coding, addressing topics such as Clinical Excellence, Ethics, Safety, Operational Efficiencies, Regulatory Compliance, Coordination of Care, Compassionate Customer Service, and Staff/Physician/Patient Satisfaction. He customizes presentations to meet specific organizational needs, consistently pleasing audiences with his tailored approach.

Residing in South Carolina, Dunaway remains active in charitable endeavors, including donating supplies to a patient family facility in Orlando, Florida. His flagship keynote, "Strong Medicine: Connecting the Healthcare Dots™," reflects his philosophy of Mutual Value Integration, exploring business issues in medicine. Dunaway also offers programs including "The Winds of Healthcare Change" and "Building a Bridge between Hospitals and Physicians: Connecting with your Doctors," among others, which provide strategic insights and foster improved communication within the healthcare industry.
