Reminder!
2013 Annual Meeting
Saturday, October 26, 2013
2:00 - 4:00 p.m.
Keynote Speaker: Lois Uttley, MPP
Director of MergerWatch
This year our keynote speaker will be Lois Uttley, MPP, the Director of MergerWatch, a nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting patients rights and access to care when nonreligious hospitals are proposing mergers with religious health systems.
MergerWatch is actively involved in Washington, which is the epicenter of religious mergers in the United States. Lois says that In the 15 years we have been tracking religious/secular hospital mergers, we have never seen so many active cases in one state. This is a great opportunity to hear this national expert talk about the challenges of ensuring that patients rights come first.
You and your guests are welcome to attend this free event!
