460 Attendees! The Mega Healthcare Conference was big!
The Kalahari was the place to be at last week’s Mega Healthcare Conference as 80 vendors packed the exhibit hall with 26 speakers filling up 15 different breakout sessions along with a panel discussion on the future of healthcare in Wisconsin. The three keynote speakers, Joe Mull, Jerry Teplitz and David Glickman received rave reviews. If you didn’t attend, be there next time! Do you know someone who may be interested in becoming a member of HFMA and they are interested in becoming certified as a CHFP? If the answer is YES then forward or send this information to them to register for these CHFP coaching webinars. Six HFMA chapters have joined forces to present a joint certification coaching course to be presented as a 4 part series of webinars presented by Christoph Stauder. The six chapters are: CT, MA/RI, ME, NH/VT, SC and WI. One webinar covers exam 1 and testing strategies. Three webinars will present two case studies from one of the three environments. These webinars will help you apply business judgement to case studies that describe various situations, opportunities and challenges that one might confront as a provider, payer or physician group. How do you teach strategic thinking? We have Christoph Stauder to help develop business judgment by observing decisions of others and what would have been better or different. We’ve offered this training to our members and we have a few spots left for guests.
