No BS and No PowerPoint: HealthImpact East in NYC

A great way to align your vision with the realities of the business of healthcare is to test your ideas and assumptions at conferences. Unfortunately, many of these events peddle hype and highly curated sales pitches rather than actionable intelligence that’ll help you get things done (or get to the “No”, which may be even more important to you right now). Sure, you’ll get valuable networking done in most cases, but we want you to get the most bang for your buck (and time) so you can get back to innovating and giving us great stories to cover. That’s why we told you about the Expo.Health event last week. And this week we’re sharing another event that’ll be very much worth an innovator’s time: HealthImpact East in NYC on June 12 and 13, 2019. Co-host Shahid Shah has been involved with this one since its start in 2011. If you’re a fan of The #HCBiz Show, then you know that Shahid gets to the point very effectively. As the on-stage facilitator, you can count on Shahid to drive the conversation towards real-talk right away and to ensure it won’t be all about the speakers on stage. HealthImpact is about discovery and enlightenment for everyone in the room. On this episode, Shahid tells us why HealthImpact East is a “no BS and no PowerPoint” event, how they keep it that way, and what you, the innovator, can expect to take away. Apply to attend here.

The #HCBiz Show has been a labor of love for the past three and a half years, and I can honestly say, it’s been one of the best things I’ve ever done for my education and growth. Thank you all for letting me learn with you over the years.  Here’s to 100 more! – Don Lee
