SUMMARY:Private Healthcare Exchanges Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Private Healthcare Exchanges conference July 16-17 in Chicago will focus on how the Affordable Care Act is changing the way insurers sell health insurance. Instead of marketing almost exclusively to employers\, the ACA has forced insurers to focus on enrolling consumers. The conference is sponsored by Employee Benefit News.

SUMMARY:American Nurses Association 2013 Staffing Conference
DESCRIPTION:Studies show that optimal staffing reduces mortality rates\, adverse patient outcomes (falls\, infections\, etc.)\, length of stay\, and rates of readmissions and medical errors. A 2013 Health Affairs study found that hospitals with high nurse staffing had lower odds of readmission penalties than hospitals with lower staffing. Lowering hospital readmissions is a key component of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). \nThis conference aims to empower nurses to improve patient care by developing innovative solutions to the complex challenge of determining and delivering appropriate nurse staffing. \nSpeakers and topics include: \n\n\nKaren A. Daley\, PhD\, RN\, FAAN\,  president of ANA \n\n\nBarbara A. Blakeney\, MS\, RN\, FNAP\, past president of ANA and the current innovations specialist at the Center for Innovation in Care Delivery in the Institute for Patient Care at Massachusetts General Hospital in BostonTOPIC: Building Leading Practices through Leadership and Innovation \n\n\nSean Clarke\, PhD\, RN\, FAAN\, director of the McGill Nursing CollaborativeTOPIC: Organizational Climate: Impact on Nurse Staffing and Patient Outcomes \n\n\nJennifer Mensik\, PhD\, RN\, NEA-BC\, FACHE\,  ANA board member and author of “The Nurse Manager’s Guide to Innovative Staffing”TOPIC: Care Delivery Models: How and Why They Impact Care Delivery \n\n\nJack Needleman\, PhD\, FAAN\, professor of health services\, UCLA Fielding School of Public Health; associate director\, UCLA Patient Safety InstituteTOPIC:  Making the Business Case for Staffing \n\n\nWashington Hilton1919 Connecticut Ave.\, NWWashington\, D.C. \nMEDIA ACCESS: Reporters interested in attending or covering the conference should contact Jemarion Jones at Jemarion.Jones@ana.org or 301-628-5198.
