The Future of Health Care Summit

The pandemic has highlighted the pitfalls and the potential within our healthcare system, exposing the urgency in fixing what’s broken and strengthening what works.

In this moment of reckoning, are we addressing the social, economic, and environmental factors that influence health and overall access? How are we re-examining our traditional models of care to incorporate new technologies and better serve patients, all while keeping costs in check? And what role does government play in promoting sustainable care and healthier communities overall?

The Hill will bring together policymakers and health experts for a comprehensive discussion on advancing access, the pursuit of health equity and resetting the care paradigm across the United States.

Technology and Care Delivery

The expansion of telemedicine, AI, remote monitoring, robotics, and other technological advances have created exciting possibilities for the world of healthcare. Can these tools transform care delivery and how might they be used to increase health equity and serve our most vulnerable communities? 

The Long Road to Health Equity

Healthcare is a necessity. Yet far too many people in the US and around the world lack adequate access to the care they need to survive and thrive. How do we make healthcare available to everyone no matter their race or place? What are some of the factors that are contributing to healthcare inequality and how can we eliminate these barriers to provide life-saving treatments to all?

Preparedness: Innovating for the Next Health Emergency

What is the next health threat? And are we prepared? Whether it’s stockpiling for the next pandemic or ensuring we have the tools on hand to neutralize a biothreat, what is the roadmap to a safe and healthy future?
