OR Business Management Conference 2025 features fresh perspectives, new tracks

Editor's Note

Anyone who has attended the annual OR Business Management Conference understands the value of an intimate event focused exclusively on OR efficiency and profitability. However, even regular attendees are likely to find something new this at year’s conference, which is scheduled for February 10-12, 2025, at the Saddlebrook Resort in Tampa, Florida. For the first time in over a decade, the OR Business Management Conference will feature a dedicated track tailored exclusively to ambulatory surgery center (ASC) leaders. We will also feature different perspectives, such as a keynote address from a Harvard Business School economist on value-based care implementation, as well as insights too timely to miss, such as a session on disaster preparedness with Tampa General.

Other highlights include a Super Bowl watch party, a pre-conference, deep-dive workshop on Foundational Leadership Practicum Certificate of Mastery with CCI – The Competency & Credentialing Institute, and a Gulf cruise with attendees—all of whom are include business managers and administrators, directors of perioperative services, and increasingly, entrepreneurs and top hospital leadership. Conference session topics include AI and technology; anesthesia staffing, onboarding surgeons, and more, complemented by peer-to-peer roundtables and other opportunities to network and learn.

For many, the conference also provides the opportunity to teach by presenting a poster session detailing a wide variety of findings and initiatives. Simply conveyed with eye-catching graphs, charts, and illustrations, these case studies make  operational efficiencies, data analytics, profitability, and staffing strategies digestible amid an overload of actionable insight.

In short, this event is a must for any perioperative leader interested in optimizing OR finances and operations. Register today!
