The Center for Improvement in Healthcare Quality and Prista Corp are co-presenting an Executive Panel Discussion as a live webinar on 12/6/2022 at 11:00am CST.

AUSTIN, TX, USA, November 29, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The ability of healthcare organizations to achieve true Performance Improvement is facing dual challenges. First, our collective experiences coming through COVID-19 highlighted some systemic problems that set PI efforts back. Applying “lessons learned” is critical as we move forward with Performance Improvement. Second, we are seeing that the “old ways” of approaching “strategic” continuous improvement are not sufficient to carry us forward and that fundamental innovation in operations – especially those that directly impact Quality and Safety as well as regulatory compliance – is a new imperative.

Recognizing that this is an important conversation that needs to happen, Prista Corporation is partnering with the Center for Improvement in Healthcare Quality (CIHQ) to present an executive panel discussion that will feature healthcare industry thought leaders. The panelists will bring their perspectives on this important topic.

This Executive Panel Discussion will be presented as a live webinar. Registration is required to get the link to join the webinar. To register for the event, please click here.
