Driving Digital Quality: See It at the Summit

August 16, 2023 · Andy Reynolds

“Driving Digital Quality” is one of six focused topics at our Health Innovation Summit 2023.

The Health Innovation Summit is our newer, bigger forum for covering the topics we used to cover at the Digital Quality Summit–our predecessor event (2017 to 2022).

Teams Everywhere Move Ahead on Digital Quality

Quality leaders can’t make the transition to digital quality alone. It takes a village of quality colleagues.

Many organizations are on their way. But some continue to struggle.

That’s why digital quality is on the agenda at the NCQA Health Innovation Summit, October 23–25, in Orlando, Florida.

What You’ll Learn

Speakers will focus on:

• Teaming.
• Standards.
• Workflows.

Session topics include:
