CMA’s 10th Annual California Health Care Leadership Academy is April 13-15 at the Monterey Convention Center.

In a departure from recent academies, the 2007 conference, “California Health Forum 2007,” will address a variety of current health issues rather than focus on a single theme.

The preliminary agenda includes presentations on practice variations and quality of care, population diversity and its implications for health care, health information technology, access to care initiatives, hospital medical staff issues, emergency medical services and public health, and the California stem cell research initiative. Also new for 2007 will be a slate of workshops devoted to practice management issues.

Expanded social and networking activities will include a cocktail reception at the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

Stay tuned for more details.
