OR Manager Conferences Enhance Education, Connection, and Experience

For 36 years, OR Manager has been providing live education and experiences to improve business and patient outcomes of the surgical suite. Each year, we come together to discuss the industry’s most pressing topics, network with peer leaders, and solve current problems faced in facilities across the country. Attendees will earn continuing education credits, meet with vendors who will positively impact performance, and take home valuable and implementable tools to apply upon return to their facilities.

Perioperative leaders trust us to deliver the latest approaches to workforce management, patient safety, emerging technology trends, business management, clinical and regulatory issues, sterilization and infection prevention, and pre- and postoperative care.

Leaders of the surgical suite attend OR Manager Conference every year to get hands-on education and experience to take back to their organizations. More than 1,000 attendees join us each year to:

• Gather educational and tactical resources through conference keynotes and breakout sessions
• Visit with vendors, compare products, and learn about the latest advancements for the surgical suite

Join us at these conferences to learn how you can improve business and patient outcomes of the surgical suite.

OR Business Management Conference | February 9-12, 2025 | Tampa, FL

OR Business Management Conference is the leading financial summit designed for business managers in perioperative services. It focuses exclusively on providing the critical financial strategies, business insights, and tools necessary to boost the operational efficiency and profitability of the surgical suite. Attendees hail from both inpatient/outpatient settings and walk away armed with methods for optimizing revenue opportunities, cost management, and the financial performance of their operations, all while maintaining the highest standards of patient care.

In addition to the education and networking, the vendors who will be in attendance will offer solutions that can aid operations, technology, or people management. Connect with 30+ vendors over just 3 days – a significant time saving as opposed to scheduling individual meetings around regular work days. This allows attendees to bring home ways to solve current problems and create more lean business practices.

Educational content is put together by our experienced program planning committee.

Key topics address core business needs in the areas of financial management, performance improvement, data analytics, staffing, technology, leadership, supply management, strategy and more.
