“The Quantum Leap, Measurement: redefining Health’s Boundaries?”
Sofitel Sydney, Wentworth
24 – 27 September, 2012

Following the success of The Great Healthcare Challenge in 2011, the Australian Healthcare and Hospitals Association (AHHA) and the Australian Council on Healthcare Standards (ACHS)   will  join forces with Women’s and Children’s Healthcare Australasia in 2012 to bring you – The Quantum Leap,  Measurement:  redefining Health’s boundaries.

Whether you work in a healthcare facility or department as a clinician, are a clinical leader, a manager or executive, a finance officer or an information officer you are required to measure and assess your outcomes. The National Health Reform is set to put this part of your job under scrutiny. This Conference will be extremely beneficial and stimulating.

How do we measure individual patient outcomes or population health status?  How do we relate financial performance to both utilisation and quality?  Do we collect and link our data efficiently to reduce the red tape burden?  How will the National Standards, mandatory from 1st January 2013, influence our administrative and clinical priorities?  How will the national entities such as the National Health Performance Authority (NHPA), the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) and the Independent Hospital Pricing Authority (IHPA) plus their state counterparts rationalise their roles?  How will they promote good performance?

This conference will discuss these questions and highlight the views of key stakeholders.

Who should attend?

This conference will appeal to a wide cross-section of the public and private healthcare sectors across rural, regional and metro areas. As a sponsor, we expect that you will have access to more than 500 senior decision-makers across the sector.

Earlybird registration closes 31st July 2012.

** Member: Any individual, associate or institution who is a member of the AHHA, ACHS or WCHA.
