Since 2002, the California HealthCare Foundation has been a major sponsor of the annual Health Care Forecast Conference, which is presented each February by the Center for Health Care Management and Policy at the University of California, Irvine.
The conference provides an opportunity for government officials, business leaders, and academicians to share their perspectives on key issues affecting health care in the US. Politics, policies, economics, and research data are reviewed and their impact on health care assessed. Participants examine public and private sector trends and gain insights into how such trends might affect their businesses.
The 2011 conference was held February 24 and 25 with the overarching theme of "Health Politics of Health Care Reform Under a New Congress." The sessions included:
- Forecasts: US Economy, Private Sector Health Care Forecast & Federal Health Care Expenditures
- Health Care Reform Under a New Congress
- Keynote Presentation: "Health Politics of Health Care Reform Under a New Congress"
- The Impact of Health Care Reform on Medicaid
- The Future of Accountable Care Organizations
- Strategic Outlook on the Health Care Market — The Market Response to Health Care Reform
