SHSMD 2020 Conference Transitions to New Virtual Events

The Society for Health Care Strategy & Market Development (SHSMD) of the American Hospital Association (AHA) will be transitioning its 2020 in-person annual conference originally scheduled for September 13-16 in Chicago to a new virtual conference plus additional online education opportunities.

Navigating a New Reality

SHSMD and AHA’s Center for Health Innovation will convene health care leaders and executives across the nation for an innovative and engaging 3-day virtual event Navigating A New Reality – Health Care Leaders Confront the Future. This one of a kind virtual conference will connect an array of key leaders facing a new era of care delivery post-COVID-19. We urge SHSMD executive strategists to join other health care leaders to share ideas, lessons learned, and innovative strategies to move the field from recovery to rebuilding. Mark your calendars for September 14-16.

The in-person 2020 SHSMD Connections conference in Chicago has officially been cancelled by the American Hospital Association’s (AHA) Society for Health Care Strategy & Market Development (SHSMD) in light of the latest COVID-19 developments, CDC guidelines, and other federal, state and local requirements. During this unprecedented time, we support Illinois’ phased reopening which does not allow large events and we understand that many hospital and health system professionals must remain available to their organizations locally.
