Eight months after the passage of healthcare reform, hospital executives have moved from analyzing the impact of the bill to implementing new strategic initiatives that encompass the bill’s dual goals of providing high quality "accountable care" at a significantly reduced cost. This C-Suite Agenda Web conference distills five key phenomena defining hospitals’ strategic responses, including:

-Increasing hospital consolidation
-Deploying IT to enable information-powered process management
-Reengineering hospital operations to reduce costs and improve quality
-Engaging physicians in cost and quality improvement efforts
-Building the chronic care management infrastructure

After detailing each phenomena, the webconference will explore the host of new spending priorities resulting from this strategic shift that are likely to have the largest impact on health care suppliers and service providers.
