Leveraging on the success of the previous six years, the 7th Annual Health Care Quality Congress (HCQ 2009) is setting a new vision for care in 2009. Mark your calendar for August 3-5, 2009 and plan to be a part of this one-of-a-kind event. As a leader and a visionary for the future of health care, this is the one Congress to provide you with a myriad of unique learning and networking opportunities to advance quality improvement and take health care to the next level. As the only multi-stakeholder event in the industry to convene more than 500 executives, HCQ 2009 breaks down traditional industry silos by assembling representatives from all sectors of health care, including hospital/health system/group practice providers; health plan/payer executives; government officials; society and coalition leaders; and employer/purchaser decision-makers.
