Leading health care executives, experts, policymakers, and other thought leaders as they embarked upon a project to develop a guiding framework for providing improved care for people with serious illness. At this inaugural working session, distinguished panelists discussed innovations in program design and pathways for delivering high quality care to an aging population with chronic illnesses, especially those with declining function and complex care needs.

Attendees are welcome to participate in Q&A sessions, and lunch will be provided. Please RSVP for lunch here.
