IHA Annual Meeting Supports Hospitals' Mission
A mission grounded in high-quality, patient-centered care and a vision to lead have brought a harvest of excellence to Iowa’s community hospitals. Iowa is ranked No. 1 by the Dartmouth Atlas of Health Care for providing cost-effective health care. The Commonwealth Fund puts Iowa second in the nation for health care system performance. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality ranks Iowa health care fourth in the nation. Iowa finished in the Top 10 in the first federal survey of patient satisfaction.
To support this high level of accomplishment and meet the mission-driven needs of member hospitals and the people who lead them, the 79th IHA Annual Meeting will bring together countless opportunities to learn, share and connect. At the Annual Meeting, hospital leaders will be able to strengthen their mission and clarify their common and individual visions for better health care in Iowa.
The 2008 IHA Annual Meeting offers three days of learning, sharing and networking, with access to the latest information and most capable presenters in crucial areas like human resource development, physician leadership, hospital governance, community relations, transparency and value-based purchasing. Three outstanding, nationally known keynote speakers will bring their audience-captivating presentations to this year’s event.
