CIO Healthcare Summit

The healthcare industry is changing. Will your organization survive?

The CIO Healthcare Summit is a gathering for C-suite executives and industry thought leaders to discuss IT challenges currently facing the healthcare industry, including improving patient care, controlling costs and meeting government regulations. With a renewed focus on decreasing healthcare costs, the Obama administration's goals for the industry have created a buzz. CIOs are looking to utilize available resources, improve efficiency and find new IT solutions.

The summit is more than a typical technology conference; it's a dynamic event designed to ensure that participants' time and energy is well spent in a productive and innovative environment. Whether attending a panel discussion, networking event, one-on-one executive exchange or thought-leadership workshop, the CIO Healthcare Summit engages participants in candid discussions and promotes the development of smart IT solutions through collaboration and idea sharing.

North America's leading healthcare companies will be present at the CIO Healthcare Summit to debate and network. Imagine the possibilities.
