The 15th anniversary of the Institute of Medicine report, “Crossing the Quality Chasm: A New Health System for the 21st Century,” will also be recognized during the full-day event.
During the symposium — which is scheduled for Dec. 10 — healthcare professionals will examine the recent gains, remaining challenges and future directions in patient safety and care quality.
For those who cannot attend the event, a live webcast and a draft agenda are available here.
