As the population ages and chronic conditions like diabetes and obesity persist, there's an increasing demand for quality wound care — a facet of care that costs the U.S. healthcare system at least $50 billion annually1. Proactive hospital and health system leaders are considering how they can meet the complex clinical needs of their patients while lowering the financial burden of wound care, whether it's treatment of chronic or acute wounds.

Join us to hear perspectives from a panel of experts at Chicago-based CommonSpirit Health, Geisinger (Danville, Pa.) and HCA Midwest Health's Overland Park Regional Medical Center (Kan.) on innovative approaches to negative pressure wound therapy and how to improve the experience for patients. 

You'll learn:
 
  • A simplified conversion process and the unexpected benefits for your facility
  • How to become a champion of change within your facility
  • Guidance on the use of advanced therapies vs. standard of care
