We believe that informed and engaged citizens are essential for a healthy democracy, and this session is designed to empower individuals to take action.
Who is involved and why does it matter? Atul Gawande, a renowned surgeon, writer, and public health researcher, will deliver the keynote address. His insights into the complexities of the healthcare system and his commitment to improving patient outcomes make him a uniquely qualified voice. Joining him will be Don Berwick, former Administrator of the Centers for Medicare & medicaid Services (CMS) and a leading figure in healthcare quality improvement, and John McDonough, a health policy expert and former senior advisor to Senator Ted Kennedy. Their combined expertise represents a powerful force for positive change.
