The Health Executive Summit
Although focused mainly on European challenges, the Health Executive Summit (19-21 May 2010, Paris, France) aims to share ‘visionary strategies and latest best practices’, as well as to provide solutions for current health challenges facing European health systems. As such, the event draws in leaders and decision-makers from around the world.
This year’s conference themes:
• Chronic Disease Management: Chronic or long-term conditions can represent up to 70% of a country’s total health expenditure. For European healthcare systems, chronic care is increasingly seen as a promising opportunity to improve clinical and financial outcomes.
Roselyne Bachelot-Narquin, Minister of Health and Sports in France, will preside over a Ministerial Roundtable: Preparing health systems for the future: Integrating chronic disease management in national reforms.
• eHealth: focusing on usage of the internet and mobile technologies to integrate care and augment collaboration between healthcare professionals and patients.
• Sustainable development: Healthcare establishments are big consumers of resources and major producers of waste. The Summit will present and utilise successful initiatives in sustainable development.
The event is collocated with Hopital Expo and HIT Paris, which attract around 26,000 visitors and 750 exhibitors.
