Join Me at NAHQ next: A Must-Attend Event for Quality & Safety Leaders

It’s that time of year! NAHQ next, THE premier healthcare Quality & Patient Safety virtual event is quickly approaching!

It is an honor for me to be such an integral thread in the tapestry of the entire event, as this year I take on the role of moderator.

NAHQ next offers an unparalleled opportunity to hear from innovative trailblazers, connect with industry leaders, gain valuable insights, and contribute to the advancement of healthcare Quality & Patient Safety. NAHQ next 2024 will feature an impressive lineup of speakers, including our own CEO, Stephanie Mercado, who will share a bold vision for what is possible on the quest for Quality, and a roadmap for how to get there.

We are also honored to host distinguished speakers from top organizations, including the CMS, the OIG, The Joint Commission, Kaiser Permanente, the Veteran’s Health Administration, Inland Empire Health Plan, Mayo Clinic, Quality Insights, Hackensack Meridian Health, San Diego State University, Cambridge Health Alliance, MedStar Health, along with Generational Diversity and Mindset experts.

A highlight of the event will be a joint presentation by Dr. Jonathan Perlin, President & CEO of The Joint Commission, and Stephanie Mercado, exploring how to advance Quality & Safety by implementing a common standard, building up workforce competencies, collaborating between organizations, and securing support from the highest levels of the organization to invest in the critical mission to deliver high-Quality care and ensure patient safety.

I’m thrilled to be co-presenting “Work in Action: Exploring the Quality and Financial Connection” with Clinical Documentation Integrity industry thought leader and expert Michelle M. Wieczorek RN RHIT CPHQ CCDS-O, System Director, Clinical Documentation Integrity Hospital Sisters Health System. Embedding Quality into your CDI & Utilization Management Operations is vital to successful financial performance; we’ll explain how.

Join me and the NAHQ Board of Directors Sept. 9 – 11 for a packed agenda of inspiring sessions and thought-provoking discussions. NAHQ next is virtual – no travel expenses impacting your budget.  Attend from the convenience of your home, office, or your favorite comfortable place.
