Past event: Military Healthcare 2017 Conference

Maximizing Health Care Quality, Safety, and Access to Improve Warfighter Readiness

Military Healthcare 2017 provides a forum to examine the complex construct of the Military Healthcare System and determine the best courses of action to address current operational and readiness challenges while maintaining the excellent standard of care U.S. Service members and their families deserve. Some of these discussions will focus on whether we should rely on Military MTF's to provide beneficiary care while maintaining military deployable readiness, or outsource more of the Military Healthcare construct. We will also examine critical focus areas such as new tools and techniques for clinical and combat education and training, combat medicine facility readiness, and new advances in medical research and development - truly addressing the full spectrum of Military Healthcare Operations.

Don't miss the opportunity to understand and support the current and future requirements of our medical stakeholders as they commit to the continuous improvement of healthcare delivery to our troops and their families!
