AHQA 2006 Annual Meeting  

Crossing the Bridge  
February 20-24, 2006
Hyatt Regency Miami , Florida

We look forward to seeing you at the premier health care networking opportunity, bringing together more than 800 quality improvement experts, practitioners, informatics professionals, researchers, analysts, communications specialists, government representatives and health care leaders from local, national and international quality improvement communities.

AHQA’s 2005 meeting, Building the Bridge to Transformational Change, focused on national efforts to redefine the way in which the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the leading health care payer, and Medicare’s Quality Improvement Organizations (QIOs) work in conjunction with local and national stakeholders to improve care for America ’s seniors. In 2006, the health care quality landscape will begin a dramatic shift as CMS redefines their expectations for how providers and practitioners in virtually every setting will improve the quality of care they provide.

The American Health Quality Association’s 2006 Annual Meeting, titled Crossing the Bridge, will focus on the critical challenges we face in improving processes and ensuring high quality care for a rapidly growing aging population, in the face of escalating expectations placed on the health care system to improve performance, reduce costs and save lives.
