Keynoters and Pre-Conference Workshops Now Set!

Health care reform has been THE focus in 2009. Our ICSI/IHI Colloquium promises to be one of THE best events in 2010 to help you lead, implement and benefit from the current transformation in health care. We recommend you invest in your future by putting aside funds now so your key staff can attend the Colloquium next May.

This year’s Colloquium will offer three distinct tracks so that you can hone in on topics most relevant to your success. Our program is built with a powerhouse of experts and topics we’ve lined up in these tracks:

• Track One: Quality and Safety
• Track Two: Leadership and Health Care Reform
• Track Three: Innovation

Keynote Speakers

May 4: Keynoter, David Shulkin, MD, The Fate of Quality in the Era of Reform and Economic Challenges

For the past two years, Dr. David Shulkin has made the list of the 50 most powerful physicians/executives in the U.S. There isn’t much that Dr. Shulkin has not done in the worlds of quality and health care. He served as the Chief Medical Officer of the University of Pennsylvania, founded and led a quality start-up company DoctorQuality, Inc., and most recently served as President and CEO of Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City. If anyone can give guidance on how to maintain quality in care delivery in today’s environment, it’s Dr. Shulkin.

May 5: Keynoter, Dave deBronkart, What ePatient Dave Wants from Hospitals and Doctors: How PHRs Should Work

Dave deBronkart wasn’t looking to become a spokesperson for the empowered patient movement. He was just trying to cope with his kidney cancer and use Google to manage his patient health record (PHR). When his hospital moved his information to his PHR, his records said he had diseases he had never had. Today hospital executives, Google, US News and World Report and others turn to Mr. deBronkart for advice on how PHRs should work in today’s health care. This session is for everyone who wants to avoid pitfalls in using PHRs to transform their enterprise.

Pre-conference Workshops, May 3, 1-4 p.m.

Implementing Shared Decision Making in Clinical Practice
Shared decision making (SDM) helps people make health-related decisions that are consistent with medical evidence and concordant with their preferences—especially when choosing among multiple treatment options with different risks and benefits. Attendees will learn about the challenges and benefits of SDM, and how to implement it in their organizations to help patients make more informed decisions. This workshop will be moderated by Marcus Thygeson, MD, Associate Medical Director, HealthPartners, and addressed by members of the Minnesota Shared Decision Making Collaborative: Karen Kraemer, RN, Vice President for Care and Diseases Management, HealthPartners; Victor Montori, MD, Director, Knowledge and Encounter Research Unit, Mayo Clinic; Lawrence Morrissey, MD, Medical Director for Quality, Stillwater Medical Group; and Megan Remark, MBA, MHA, Vice President Specialty Care, HealthPartners Medical Group.

So You Want to Be a Nurse or Physician Executive? How to Do It; What to Expect.
This session will provide a tremendous career-building opportunity with insights from these experts: Kent Bottles, MD, ICSI President; K. James Ehlen, MD, CEO, RespirTech; Patrick Herson, MD, Vice President, Fairview Health Services; Joanne Disch, RN, PhD, Director of the Katharine J. Densford International Center for Nursing Leadership, University of Minnesota School of Nursing; and Shirley Brekken, RN, PhD, Executive Director, State of Minnesota Board of Nursing. This panel will outline what it takes to become a nurse or physician executive, what to expect during the process, and what kind of position and demands will result from the fruits of your labor—especially in light of the ongoing health care transformation.

What Hospitals and Doctors Should Know About Patient Social Networks
Patients are becoming more informed and united through social networks. This is rapidly changing the traditional provider-patient relationship, and how care is delivered. Gary Oftedahl, MD, ICSI’s Chief Knowledge Officer, will moderate a discussion featuring Amy Tenderich of DiabetesMine, and Ben Heywood of Patientslikeme. You’ll come away knowing how this growing movement will impact your organization and you personally, as well as how you can engage this different patient base.
