Transformative. Interactive. Inspiring.

NRC Health will host its 28th annual special event on August 21–23 in Seattle—and you can save on registration if you take advantage of early-bird pricing by June 27.

The theme, “Human Understanding—Connecting through Stories,” will bring high-performing organizations together to compose a plan for the industry’s future. NRC Health’s Symposium will offer invaluable networking at the Museum of Pop Culture, inspirational strategic education, and internationally acclaimed speakers.

This year’s event will address topics such as the principles of personalization in healthcare, creating customer loyalty that endures, maximizing the impact of every customer touchpoint, and returning to the joy of caregiving. You’ll be able to:

• Explore candid conversations with health innovators and business leaders, and position yourself and your organization for growth.

• Grow through meaningful and strategic connections designed to take your organization to the next level.

According to attendee feedback, the NRC Health Symposium is a can’t-miss experience, with exceptional messages that stir innovative ideas to bring back to larger PX and marketing teams. “Excellent conference,” said one of last year’s guests. “The sessions were all very informative. I took pages of notes and look forward to sharing what I learned with my colleagues!”

This year for the first time, NRC Health offers new tracks for executives and board members to challenge the status quo and help their organizations evolve patient-experience strategies beyond measurement to truly personalize care.

The governance track appeals to CEOs and their most forward-thinking board members.
