The design industry and the frontlines of the medical field are teaming up to provide insights into delivering improved healthcare value at IDSA's Medical Design Conference.
Significant challenges face both the design and medical fields as they each work to address needed improvements in healthcare value. Improving quality of care while lowering costs seems contradictory and to date has been unattainable.
Jointly chaired by Bill Evans, IDSA, senior vice president of innovation, Bridge Design, a Ximedica company, and Aenor Sawyer, MD, of UCSF's Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, the co-hosted IDSA Medical Design Conference 2016 will double down on these issues by combining insights from the design and healthcare disciplines—to facilitate the care transformations sought by all stakeholders—from patients to providers to payers. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of each other's perspectives and how everyone can pull together to address major issues in healthcare that can be impacted by design.
Valuable takeaways from the IDSA Medical Design Conference 2016 speakers, sessions and panels include:
Actionable new perspectives and methodologies to impact work on building and strengthening successful design for healthcare.
An understanding of considerations unique to designing in healthcare and how they can be addressed.
Insights on the need for collaboration between the design and healthcare fields, including challenges and successful models.
New, often one-on-one, networking connections drawn from the depth and breadth of not just Bay Area innovation in medical practice and design, but also from the wider community in attendance.
Registration is open online through Nov. 7 and onsite from Nov. 8 to 12.
