Healthcare Summit

Access the Summit

If you purchased a ticket for DrupalCon, the password was included in the email, "DrupalCon North America: Thanks, Survey, & Summits" sent on Monday, 19 April. 

If you don't have a ticket, but would like to attend, there's still time! Register for the summit now for only $125USD. 

 

The healthcare space is now, more than ever, a critical area for all development communities. Digital communication and technologies offer the promise of improved access for patients, but building good solutions requires a solid foundation in accessibility, security and compliance.

Whether you are at a pharma working towards the next vaccine or therapy, a hospital network treating patients with AND without COVID, an insurance company making sure all patients have access to critical healthcare during this tough time, there is much for you to gain from this summit.

Join us for a day of facilitated peer-to-peer problem solving combined with industry leaders sharing their experience solving common challenges like building a digital roadmap for a healthcare system, vaccine distribution platforms, and building user-centered patient experiences.

Who should attend? 

Anyone interested in hearing how companies and the community are creating rich Digital Experiences in the Healthcare space and all levels of colleagues in the Pharma, Medical, Clinical, Hospital, Payers, Caregivers and Healthcare Professional space.

What will you get by attending?

Our focus this year is on building networks through problem solving. We’re facilitating “Solution Rooms” to enable participants to roll up their sleeves and do workshop problems with 6-8 peers. Our speakers are all actively working on solving thorny technical and business problems, and will share their lessons learned and recommendations for avoiding common potholes. When you leave this summit you’ll have some practical ideas for addressing your specific technology and healthcare challenges, some bigger picture ideas that might guide your roadmap, and some people to call for advice and commiseration.

Who Moved My Pixels? - How Design Affects Cognition
