2021 Healthcare Coalition Conference

Every year, we look forward to coming together at the Healthcare Coalition Conference to discuss emerging issues, best practices and to network with colleagues, industry partners, and consultants. Unfortunately, the continuing impact that the coronavirus (COVID-19) is having in our communities and facilities has forced us to make the difficult decision to postpone the HCC conference in the hopes that we will be able to host a safe and successful event at a future time. This was a tough call to make, and while we know this is disappointing, the health and safety of our attendees are our utmost concern. However, in keeping with our conference theme this year, we will remain Flexible, Focused and will move Forward with the 2021 HCC conference into the first quarter of next year.

 

The new event dates for the 2021 HCC will be February 21-23, 2022, and will still be held in Owensboro, KY. This postponed event will not take the place of the 2022 Healthcare Coalition Conference, which will still be held in the fall of 2022 in Lexington, KY. Please check the HCC event homepage for additional details as they become available in October: https://kshe.org/page/2021hcc_homepage
