Innovations in Patient Empowerment - Healthcare Symposium

 


About the Symposium

Innovations in Patient Empowerment will bring together leading thinkers and practitioners in the U.S. and abroad to discuss ways and means of empowering consumers before, as, and after they access the healthcare system. In this event, we give voice to technological advances in conventional medicine, as well as myriad advances beyond conventional approaches and sites of service. We study the socio-demographic, economic, political, technological, and industrial forces that have the potential to move U.S. healthcare toward or away from the interests of patients, providers, payers, and others.  We pay particular attention to those innovations that are working in educating, engaging and empowering patients to take charge of their healthcare. Our goal is to see a healthy workforce of tomorrow.


Attendees will Gain:

Critical insight into the essential drivers, roles, and effects of patient empowerment in transforming healthcare system from a “treat-the-sick” model towards “prevention-is-key” approach

A clear understanding of the major categories of empowering technologies and how each will dramatically advance or disrupt the current clinical, and healthcare delivery system

A list of key success factors for market, corporate, and product innovation, scale-up, and leadership in an era of patient empowerment.

An opportunity to network with key leaders from industry and academia as well as witness first-hand demonstration of latest technologies and services in patient empowerment
