Our annual review meeting will be held in Melbourne on Thursday 26 November for each Personal Members or his/her representative.  This meeting is designed to update busy senior executives on the key insights gained this year from extensive analysis of comparative data trends, and to provide time for you to discuss key issues with each other in an informal, confidential setting.

We are delighted that former Health Roundtable Director, Dr Christine Bennett, will be sharing her thoughts with the group during the afternoon of the 26th.  Christine will be presenting her personal views about the implications of the health reform commissions report for health service executives.

Two concurrent workshops will be held on Friday morning:

- An operational master class to explore ways to improve care of "stranded" patients -- those staying in hospital over 21 days

- An introductory workshop for newer chief executives on how to get traction from use of Health Roundtable operational data

There is no additional registration cost for these sessions or the group dinners for Personal Members or your representative. 

Please note.  Only one person from each member health service may attend the meeting.  This is done to foster senior executive networking.
