Summit Overview

Aging and chronic care needs will be defining issues in the evolution of health care.

Previous Health Summits have assessed the sustainability of our health care system. The 12 inconvenient truths and five key priorities for change identified previously have helped to identify the issues, and the actions required to fix health care.

The 2014 Summit, our 3rd in Toronto, will focus on two interrelated issues that represent the most complex challenges to system sustainability and that will affect the health of all Canadians, now and in the future:

  1. The system is misaligned with an aging population
  2. The current delivery model is ill-equipped to address chronic care and prevention

 

Learn from a broad range of experts and the latest research.

Canada’s health system leaders will gather at this Summit to discuss the latest research, hear from top Canadian and international experts, and explore practical solutions to complex challenges in seniors and chronic care.

The Conference Board consistently convenes a broad range of stakeholders, including medical and health professionals, administrators, professional associations, health services providers, pharmaceutical companies, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), governments, suppliers, and patient groups for these events.

This diversity helps develop innovative solutions, and creates the energy and insightful dialogue that sets our Summits apart.
