How should healthcare be delivered in the next generation?
What innovations are necessary to facilitate healthcare delivery in the next generation?
What steps can we take today to achieve the next-generation design?
These questions were posed to a group of CEO-level healthcare executives who gathered at Purdue for a Healthcare Summit in May 2006. Summit participants suggested that a healthcare system for the next generation must include:
- Access to "basic" healthcare for all;
- Consumer choice and responsibility; and
- Personalized and coordinated continuum of care
The 2007 Discovery Lecture Series / Regenstrief Center Annual Conference / National Academy of Engineering Regional Meeting will explore the important role of engineering, management and science principles in achieving these characteristics for next-generation healthcare delivery.
Join the national dialogue about transforming healthcare delivery during our two-day conference, featuring:
