Speaking opportunities are limited to professionals and experts from healthcare provider and payer organizations, government agencies and academic institutions. Presentations should be practical, actionable and solutions-based. Case studies are a priority for this event.

The two-day Big Data and Healthcare Analytics Forum will bring together more than 250 leading providers, payers, researchers and government officials. Presentations will demonstrate how healthcare payers and providers are using analytics to improve and standardize clinical care, reduce costs and make better strategic decisions for their organizations.
