Decoding the Health Economy: Why American Healthcare is at a Crossroads

Join Trilliant Health CEO Hal Andrews for a data-rich expose of the U.S. health economy. What is the real size of the healthcare marketplace? What does the health status of Americans and current demand projections tell us about where to invest capital? What is the impact of novel therapies? Government cost-control initiatives? Employer-led workplace improvements?

You’ll leave with an actionable understanding of the critical forces driving the U.S. healthcare system. You’ll also hear about providers who are steering these forces to increase their value to their patients, workforce, and the communities they serve.

People-Centered Projects:  What Really Matters in Healthcare Design

As a registered nurse AND a registered architect, Joyce Durham brings an integrated approach to designing facilities that deliver efficient, effective, and compassionate care. To Joyce, a successful project rethinks the status quo and improves the lives of patients and staff. It also leverages the project footprint, integrates the most efficient operating systems, and allows for future change. Can you have it all? Absolutely. You’ll emerge from Joyce’s presentation with a new framework for clinical, operational, and facility design and planning.

Go Modular? The Inside Story on
Offsite Construction for Healthcare

Thinking that off-site modular construction limits your options? Actually, in many instances, it increases them. Learn about the benefits of this “next generation” off-site construction method, where 90% of construction happens inside, under controlled conditions. Much more customizable than in times past, today's modular construction offers healthcare clients certainty with cost and schedule, higher quality construction, and less disruption to your busy campus.

Will it work for your upcoming project type? Find out at this informative presentation by an end user and a modular supplier.
