According to the Institute of Medicine’s latest report, Crossing the Chasm: A New Health System for the Twenty-first Century, an immediate overhaul of the health care system is essential. The report cites that the present system fails to integrate technology or adequately provide quality coverage for patients. In building a road map for the twenty-first century, the health care system needs to be reinvented so that it is patient-centered, knowledge-based, and technologically advanced. This panel will discuss the complex issues of revamping the health care system to improve quality and productivity.
In addition, you are invited to attend a technology exposition in the lobby of the AEI conference center before the forum begins. Some of the most innovative technological health care devices will be on display.
