Care Transformation and Workforce Development

Reimagining Care. Strengthening the Workforce.

Transforming health care delivery requires a growth mindset, new technologies, and a workforce prepared to lead through change. The Care Transformation and Workforce Development program track brings together health system leaders, educators, clinicians, and policy advocates to explore how academic medicine is redesigning care models while advancing a resilient, future-ready workforce. From integrating artificial intelligence into clinical workflows to strengthening long-standing partnerships that support care delivery and training, this track highlights how innovation, collaboration, and mission alignment are driving meaningful change across medical schools, teaching hospitals, and academic health centers.

This curated track focuses on the people at the center of transformation. Some of this year’s sessions examine strategies to address workforce shortages, support evolving learner and faculty needs, and ensure equitable access to care in an increasingly complex environment. Attendees will engage with practical approaches to recruitment, retention, training, and well-being—while exploring how social drivers of health and value-based care models shape outcomes and workforce priorities. By following this track, attendees will gain actionable insights to strengthen care delivery and build a workforce equipped to meet the challenges of today and tomorrow.

"This is going to be a conference where you are going to hear about how we can come together in the face of really challenging spaces. Maybe you're taking away things that will help you solve problems at your own institutions. And maybe you're building connections with people that can help you through challenging times. I think that's going to be really important as we move forward. .”
