CFO Healthcare US Summit 2011 To Be Held On 20-22 September In California

London, May 24, 2011 AEST (ABN Newswire) - Providing a seamless, integrated system of care across a range of healthcare settings, accountable care organizations (ACOs) are increasingly being touted as the cure for a failing health system. But challenges remain.

Implementing the ACO model is no doubt one of the issues that will be discussed at the CFO Healthcare US Summit 2011, which takes place from 20-22 September at the Ritz Carlton Marina del Ray, in California.

This closed-door summit, hosted by GDS International, features some of the leading voices in the US CFO healthcare sector, including Philip Patterson, CEO of Bon Secours Health System; Leon Leach, EVP of the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and Chairman of the Board of Directors of MD Anderson Services Corp.; Michael Burke, CFO at NYU Langone Medical Center; and Grace-Marie Galen, President of the Galen Institute.

Along with streamlining patient flow, other key topics for discussion include ways to increase market share; the impact of health IT on cost and care quality; reducing waste in the healthcare system, and strategies for managing the cost-speed-quality cycle of clinical documentation.

CFO Healthcare US Summit 2011 is an exclusive C-level event reserved for 100 participants that includes expert workshops, facilitated roundtables, peer-to-peer networks and co-ordinated meetings.
