Why attend the World Hospital Congress?
Here are four BIG reasons why you NEED to be at the 2018 World Hospital Congress in Brisbane in October:
1. A one-in-20-year opportunity
The World Hospital Congress was last in Australia in 1997, so this is your one-in-20-year chance to hear from and network with health leaders from around the world in Brisbane, Australia.
2. Health funding is changing - don't be left behind!
Health organisations around the world are shifting funding focus to outcomes achieved rather than volume of services delivered. Hear from world leaders in the value-based healthcare movement, including Professor Elizabeth Teisberg, co-author of Redefining Health Care: Creating Value-based Competition on Results , and Singapore's Executive Director of the Agency of Care Effectiveness, Dr Daphne Khoo, as well as hearing about real projects being implemented now in Denmark, Brazil, the USA and Australia.
3. Healthcare systems are becoming increasingly integrated - and less fragmented. Learn from a multitude of approaches being taken around the world.
Integration doesn't just apply to health. You can learn what the World Bank has found in integrating its global operations. Also see how Tanzania is developing an innovative integrated health system from primary care up, how Taiwan is integrating home medical care services, and how Iran is developing integrated and people-centred palliative care.
4. Technology is being increasingly applied to healthcare delivery - see how and why, and learn about potential pitfalls
The information revolution has provided us with greater capacity than ever before to collect data - from detailed clinical information, to patient flows, we have more information than ever at our fingertips. So how is this being utilized around the world? Learn what Spain is achieving with health apps, how Zambia is using technological innovations to provide better quality of care in low resource settings, how Kazakhstan is standardising electronic data capture to improve healthcare quality and so much more.
