The 7th Annual Health Care Quality Congress convenes over 500 of health care's top visionaries and thought leaders to advance quality improvement initiatives and drive the nation's health care reform agenda. As the only multi-stakeholder event in the industry, HCQ 2009 breaks down traditional industry silos by assembling representatives from all sectors of health care, including hospital/health system/group practice providers; health plan/payer executives; government officials; society and coalition leaders; and employer/purchaser decision-makers.
