ABQAURP Announces Key Speakers for the 37th Annual Health Care Quality and Patient Safety Conference
New Port Richey, FL (PRWEB) September 03, 2013 -- As we move from the legislation to implementation phase of the Affordable Care Act, many facets of health care reform are becoming more evident. With multiple Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) open for business, and health exchanges taking form in various states across the country, it is clear that despite ongoing legal challenges, change is going forward, perhaps at a rate faster than envisioned.
The Affordable Care Act is a reality. Accountable Care Organizations are up and running. Providers need the tools to succeed and prosper in this new environment. ABQAURP's 37th Annual Health Care Quality & Patient Safety Conference will provide attendees information on current strategies being employed and "tools they can use" to get paid for innovation and high-value care.
ABQAURP is proud to announce the following speakers scheduled to appear at this conference:
Harry S. Hertz, PhD - Director Emeritus, Baldrige Performance Excellence Program
Herbert Pardes, MD - Executive Vice Chairman of the Board of Trustees (Former President & CEO), New York-Presbyterian, The University Hospital of Columbia and Cornell
Paul Weygandt, MD, JD, MPH, MBA, CCS, FACPE - Vice President, Physician Services, J.A. Thomas & Associates

Marie Cleary-Fishman, RN, MBA, MSN, CHCQM, CPHQ - Vice President, Performance Improvement, Illinois Hospital Association
Sunil K. Sinha, MD, MBA, CHCQM - Vice President and Chief Medical Officer, Bon Secours Richmond Health System, Memorial Regional Medical Center
