HCEG Insights for Healthcare Leaders
Message from our Executive Director
Fellow Executives in Healthcare,

As we gear up for the busy months ahead, I'm proud to share agenda specifics about HCEG's marquee event, the 2019 Annual Forum. We'll be celebrating our 31st year as a leading networking organization in the birthplace of HCEG, Boston, MA! With noteworthy networking opportunities.

I invite you to take a few moments to review the content in this newsletter and on our blog , particularly relating to the Forum agenda. As we've been known to do since 1988, we promise to provide the setting and environment for transformative, yet actionable dialogue. Here's a recap of our 2018 event, which more than delivered on that promise.

I strongly encourage you to register for the Forum, as our room block is quickly filling up. Registration includes an exciting networking event on Fenway Park's Left Field Deck at the Red Sox vs. Yankees game on 9/9. Seating is limited! Contact Juliana Ruiz with any questions on attending the Forum or participating in HCEG events.

I look forward to seeing you in Boston!

Healthcare Executives Address Industry Challenges, Issues & Opportunities 
September 9-11th, Boston MA
The 2019 Annual Forum of the HealthCare Executive Group (HCEG) takes place in HCEG’s birthplace – Boston, Massachusetts – on September 9th. 30 years ago, a group of healthcare executives created the Managed Care Executive Group (MCEG), a ‘user group’ to share their ideas, best practices, and lessons learned. These healthcare leaders recognized the value of collaborating with like-minded individuals to solve challenges, deal with similar issues, and leverage opportunities together.

Fast forward about 20 years and the Managed Care Executive Group became the HealthCare Executive Group. And in less than two months, the HealthCare Executive Group returns to its birthplace in Boston for its 31st Annual Forum!

Insights on Solving the Rubik’s Cube of Payer Data
Available On Demand
Healthcare payers are sitting on a lot of data, from eligibility data, to claims data, to data obtained from 3rd parties, to data derived from analytics.

It’s no surprise that over the last decade “Data & Analytics” has been a consistent entry on the HealthCare Executive Group’s Top 10 list of challenges, issues, and opportunities facing healthcare executives. And currently ranked #1 on the 2019 HCEG Top 10 list.

To help share insight, ideas, and actionable information supporting data and analytics, our sponsor partner EQ Health Solutions presented our June Webinar Series event: Solving the Rubik’s Cube of Payer Data.
