Please stop by to pick up your badge if you haven’t already (registration opens at 6:30 am), and make sure to download the mobile app for a full agenda. We also hope to see you tomorrow at 5:00 pm for a “desert oasis” themed welcome reception in the courtyard.

ORBMC is the only industry event dedicated to arming perioperative professionals and business leaders with the information, business insights, financial strategies, and tools to maximize efficiencies, identify revenue opportunities, and increase the profitability of the surgical suite while ensuring superior patient satisfaction. The focus is on finding tangible ways to solve daily challenges, ranging from new ways to leverage data and artificial intelligence to tried-and-true measures for cost savings and waste reduction. To that end, the agenda also includes ample networking time for attendees to exchange ideas and build meaningful connections.

This year’s speakers represent a wide variety of healthcare facilities, ranging from large health systems to outpatient surgery centers to small community hospitals. Their combined expertise spans virtually all aspects of surgical suite leadership, including administration, operations, process improvement, data analytics, and financial management for various surgical service lines. Stay tuned this week for highlights from select sessions.
