Who will be in the audience?
The annual Catholic Health Assembly attracts an audience of senior leaders/decision-makers (executives, trustees, clinicians, and senior managers) from Catholic health care systems and facilities across the continuum of care (such as hospitals, long-term care facilities, and community outreach programs), as well as sponsors of ministry organizations.
May I bring an additional person to support my presentation? Will CHA cover expenses?
For a 45-minute, traditional breakout, CHA will waive the registration fee for Assembly 2024 for up to two (2) session presenters. Additionally, CHA will reimburse for one (1) night's lodging at the Assembly headquarters hotel for each session presenter, as noted in the guidelines (link) for the 2024 Call for Bold and Innovative Ideas.
