Chart Future Health Care
Currents
We are pleased
to announce that J. Ian Morrison, Ph.D.,
M.A., of the Health Futures Forum and Anderson
Consulting will give the opening keynote address,
"Prepare for Health Care in the New Millennium:
Vision, Values, and Leadership," on April 11. How do
you stay on track in today's roller coaster health care
environment? Dr. Morrison's widely sought strategic insights
on how to prepare for the new millennium in health care will
help us avoid falling prey to fads, fiction, and fanatic
management philosophies. We'll learn how the various actors
are preparing for the future, and what our organization and we
can do to take advantage of critical opportunities on the
horizon. We'll be among the first to hear the latest analysis
and insights on the political, economic, and context of change
in health care in this exciting new addition to the opening
session of the conference.
It's NEVER too late to
register. Sign up online now through Sunday, April 7, at http://www.cvh2002.net.

Relax and Unwind with Food,
Fun, and Friends
Forget the
receptions from last century! We've planned "A
Heart-Stirring Extravaganza," with heart-healthy hors
d'oeuvres, beverages, and fun physical activity opportunities
at 6 p.m. on the opening day of the conference. See favorite
foods transformed into tasty heart-healthy delights in the
food-preparation demonstrations conducted by the American
Heart Association. Participate in lively line dancing,
parachute games, and other physical-activity demonstrations
provided by the experts.
