We are proud to announce a very special lineup of keynote speakers this year. Noted surgeon and thought leader Dr. Atul Gawande will discuss how real reform can occur in the near future, and bestselling authors Bill George and Dan Heath will provide enlightening direction on how to harness your leadership abilities and creatively embrace change. Also, Kenneth Novack, retired vice chairman of Time Warner, who previously served as the vice chairman of America Online, will share his passion for applying advances in information technology to health care, and explain how the intersection of the two fields can yield transformational improvements in both patient care and resource utilization.

In addition to these dynamic keynote speakers, the conference will offer peer-to-peer breakout sessions led by executives from the nation’s top healthcare delivery systems. These will present industry innovations, solutions, and techniques to help you better lead your organization and provide the highest quality care to your patients.
