This all-day educational gathering is FREE to ALL COAP Members working in cardiac care, quality, and hospital leadership. If you work in a COAP member hospital, you are a COAP member.
We are honored to welcome Ralph Brindis, MD, MPH, Clinical Professor of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, and a nationally recognized leader in cardiovascular quality improvement, as our keynote speaker. As the leader of NCDR from its inception and through its first ten years of exponential growth, few have done more than Dr. Brindis to advance the collection, analyses and distribution of cardiovascular clinical outcomes data. He will share cutting-edge insights on the future of cardiovascular performance measurement and registry-based work. Don’t miss this opportunity to engage with thought leaders shaping the next generation of cardiac quality and patient-centered care.
Please bring your full team of physicians, data managers, quality leaders and administrative leaders. There is no limit to the number of attendees from each hospital, but registration is required.
Join physicians, nurses, quality improvement specialists and healthcare leaders from across our region, and beyond, for a day of shared learning, data review, practice sharing, and planning for the future. Discuss challenges with your community of peers, exchange ideas, and celebrate our collective success. This meeting is in-person only. All presentations will be recorded and posted on our website later this summer.
