The medical industry is as big as any other in this country. Yet, healthcare’s big brands aren’t in the same league as Nike and Amazon. One reason for that is how we deliver our product and how we treat our customers. As we all address that issue, we’ll usher in a new era for healthcare: not just financially or for the patients, but for the industry itself.
ENGAGE is the best place to join in the conversation about how we treat those customers. MedCity ENGAGE, the premier event to advance patient engagement and healthcare delivery, is being held in D.C. (Bethesda) next week, Sept. 30-Oct. 1.

- Teamwork. ENGAGE attracts a diverse collection of healthcare leaders – from policymakers and market-makers to innovators and fresh thinkers – rushing to embrace the biggest challenges healthcare has to offer.
- Energy. ENGAGE offers fresh perspectives delivered differently. From the showing of the independent film Code Black to consumer-pleasing tips from media moguls and coffeehouse kings—be ready to hear different points of view. Get ready to bring their lessons back to healthcare.
- Accountability. A Patients Town Hall is ENGAGE’s “afterparty.” We’ll talk about engaging patients and then get critiqued by them. Healthcare end-customers will critique our thinking and set us straight. Get ready for truth to power.
Join us next week at the 2nd annual ENGAGE. Your participation is important.
This really is a unique opportunity to gather with healthcare leaders and address one of healthcare’s greatest challenges, and we encourage you to be there.
