CORRECTION - GDS International: GDS International to Host June's Next Generation Healthcare Summit in Colorado

Seventy-five of North America's leading mining executives will head to Colorado June 19th for two and a half days of workshops, peer led panel discussions and working lunches at GDS International's twelfth NG Healthcare US summit.

This popular event will take place June 19-21 2013 at the five-star Omni Interlocken Resort, Denver Colorado. Having previously run 12 successful NG Healthcare summits in North America, this year's event also promises to be extremely valuable, with attendees discussing big data/data management, quality initiatives and patient care, and clinical informatics. Delegates will also be looking at broader issues, including health information exchange, EMR/HER and accountable care.

Attending NG Healthcare US this year will be: Ann Shepard, CNIO & CNIH for Catholic Health Initiatives; Donald Bignotti, SVP & CMO for Trinity Health; Jeffrey Terrel, Associate CMIO for University of Michigan Health System; Yosef Dlugacz, SVP & Chief of Clinical Operations for North Shore LIJ Health System; Robert Kritzler, Deputy CMO for John Hopkins; and Sameer Badlani, CMIO for University of Chicago Medical Center.

Alex Olson, NG Healthcare US Summit Director for GDS International, the global events company behind the Summit, said: "With the current regulatory and financial pressures, healthcare providers have an extensive 2013 agenda.  The providers are tasked with integrating, optimizing and managing technology implementations in a cost effective and operationally sound manner."

He continues: "The medical technology expansion is still in its infancy, but will be transforming the US care delivery model.  Successful strategy execution is crucial  - connected, collaborative cooperation is essential to this process, and important that all parties recognize the bottom line isn't just related to cost, but the quality of patient care. Institutions are implementing action plans to address challenges, and focus their efforts on solutions that will enable them to optimize performance across their Health continuums.  The NG Healthcare summit will serve as a platform for industry leaders to engage in three days of focused dialogue and thought leadership."
