(Chicago, IL; March 22, 2016): Healthcare industry in the United States and around the world is rapidly changing, leading to many describing the healthcare environment as dynamic, complex, and highly uncertain. The manner in which the health care environment is perceived and characterized is important for several reasons. Higher-performing health care providers and organizations are those that are, among other characteristics, able to understand and manage uncertainty and ambiguity in their environments. The Affordable Care Act designed to provide an opportunity to reinvent the health care delivery system to make it more accessible, patient-centered, and comprehensive, with an emphasis on prevention and primary care is under attack and depending on the outcome of the elections it may change.  

With a view to help AAPI members better understand the recent trends in the delivery of healthcare to millions across the nation, the forthcoming 34th annual convention, organized by the Association of American Physicians of Indian Origin (AAPI) at the prestigious the Marriott Marquis, Time Square in New York from June 30th to July 4th, 2016 will  conduct a CEO Forum,  moderated by Mr Fareed Zakaria, CNN  and will be featuring world renowned leaders from various segments of  healthcare. . “The 2016 AAPI Annual Convention & Scientific Assembly offers the participants at the convention a rare platform to interact with and listen to leading physicians, healthcare professionals, academicians, scientists, and leaders of the hospitals, technology  , medical device and pharmaceutical companies,” says Dr. Seema Jain, President of AAPI. 

 â€œWith the changing trends and statistics in healthcare, both in India and US, we are refocusing our mission and vision, AAPI would like to make a positive meaningful impact on the healthcare delivery system both in the US and in India,” Dr. Jain says. The CEO Forum will focus on the changing trends in the healthcare sector and how they impact the providers, hospitals and corporations as well as the patients. The Forum will also offer insights into managing efficiently the growing costs in the delivery of healthcare services.
