11th Annual Health Congress 2009
23rd, 24th & 25th March, 2009 Sydney Harbour Marriott at Circular Quay
In coming decades Australia will have more people suffering from chronic health conditions, a higher proportion of older people with complex health care needs, increasing patient expectations and burgeoning costs from new diagnostic and treatment technologies.
To address the growing pressure on health funding, Australia is embarking on one of its most significant healthcare reforms. The Federal Government is calling for workforce reforms and greater transparency on the cost of medical procedures, safety and efficiency. Federal and state governments across the country are implementing major policy initiatives to transition from curative medicine to prevention and accelerate the implementation of health information technologies.
Informa is pleased to host the 11th edition of the annual Health Congress. This three-day event brings together government representatives and leading experts to discuss the federal and state agenda for healthcare reform.
If you are a part of Australia’s health industry this is an excellent occasion for you to join industry leaders and your peers and spend three days with healthcare decision makers to assess strategies for building a patient centric sustainable healthcare system, to discuss how reform can keep pace with the rapidly changing demands of the patient, and to look at current crisis points and solutions for resolving these.
Key topics will include: Population health challenges Tackling the burden of chronic disease Mental health: the need for urgent reform Financing Australia’s future healthcare system Strategies to ensure a sustained & strong private health insurance sector Equity of access to medical technology Future directions for Australia’s hospital systems The future of integrated community healthcare Addressing the healthcare skills crisis Enticing future health professionals to work in rural Australia Becoming a world leader in health information technologies Working towards a national e-health strategy State e-health agendas: moving from conception to adoption Visit the agenda page or download the 11th annual Health Congress brochure to see full details of speakers and topics.
