Health Care Reform: Employer Leadership in the New Decade
November 14-16, 2010
JW Marriott- Washington, DC

 

Register now for Health Care Reform: Employer Leadership in the New Decade. While Congress has passed historic health care legislation, NBCH recognizes that all health and health care are local, which means real reform begins at the community level. Join us at NBCH’s two day program showcasing innovations, case studies, and best practices from the experts on improving health and transforming health care, empowering employer leaders to take a stand and implement change. Nearly 500 health care stakeholders, including NBCH coalition directors and their employer members, are expected to attend this valuable learning and networking experience in our nation’s capital.

 

Reasons to Attend NBCH’s Annual Conference:

• It’s the health care purchasers’ premier conference—two days of innovations, best practice strategies, and resources that you can bring back to the workplace

• Hear from the experts, representing all sectors of health care, as they explore reform issues and the impact on your organization

• Increase your network of health care thought leaders, identify partners for collaboration, and interact with vendors and suppliers in the exhibit hall

• Learn how NBCH coalitions and employers are working with public health and other stakeholders to improve health and health care in their communities
