About Us
Alera Healthcare Consulting was founded to help primary care practices succeed in performance-based care models — without sacrificing the well-being of the clinicians and staff who make that care possible.
built to support the future of primary care.
Alera was born from lived experience. Liz Buno brings more than two decades of frontline primary care practice alongside leadership roles in quality, clinical operations, and outcomes-focused care strategy.
Having served as a practice owner, Provider Champion, and clinical leader within large multi-practice groups, Liz has seen firsthand how performance-based care can succeed — and why it so often doesn’t. Too often, the burden of transformation falls disproportionately on primary care providers, contributing directly to burnout.
Alera exists to change that.
