GHR Delivers Disruption in Healthcare to LA. Orlando, Are You Ready?

GHR Wraps Up Three Days of Industry Education and Networking, Sets Sights on Orlando for 2018.

Palm Beach Gardens, FL, October 15, 2017 --(PR.com)-- Global Healthcare Resources (GHR) is happy to announce the successful completion of the annual 9th Employer Healthcare & Benefits Congress and the 10th World Medical Tourism & Global Healthcare Congress, both collocated at the Los Angeles Convention Center from October 2 – 4. HR professionals, insurance agents and brokers, wellness program managers and other industry stakeholders from around the world gathered for three days of education, networking and to discover the latest in a growing industry.

“We are invigorated with the success of LA,” said Jonathan Edelheit, CEO of the Employer Healthcare & Benefits Congress. “From our great sponsors who made the event possible, to the full educational sessions informing attendees on the latest news and developments, we continued to deliver the conference experience our attendees expect from us. We are looking forward to improving on this experience in Orlando.”

Topics and events at the this year’s conference ranged from the Certified Corporate Wellness Specialist (CCWS) live workshop that took place on the first day of the event, to the Healthcare Innovation Technologies Forum, to the educational sessions featuring the latest in the benefits industry taught with real case studies.

Highlights of this year’s event include:

-Keynote Speaker Dr. J. Craig Venter, Cofounder of the Human Longevity Institute and Sequencer of the Human Genome, discussing the future of genomics and precision medicine.
-The Healthcare Innovation Technologies Forum pitch event that brought ten healthcare start-ups to compete for venture funding
-The Employer Direct Contracting & Bundled Payment Summit, exploring how leading employers, both self-funded and otherwise, are working with providers to better maintain employee health and reduce employer healthcare costs
-Thousands of networking meetings scheduled through our conference app

Of the many deals struck and announcements made at last week’s events, none was more anticipated than the location and dates for 2018’s event. With a newly minted name that merges the two events, the conferences will relaunch in Orlando, on October 28-30, 2018 as Healthcare Revolution™.

Healthcare Revolution™ is for business-to-business and face to face meetings and inking deals on the spot. VP level and above walk the halls, join educational sessions, set up meetings and make deals. If you’re in the healthcare industry – from insurance to hospitalists to governments to employers, Healthcare Revolution™ in 2018 is where business happens. These are the professionals, this is the room and this is the event where the business of health takes root.

Applications are now being accepted for early and mid-stage startups to compete for venture funding and grand prizes at the second annual Healthcare Tech Innovations Showdown.
