Jim Carroll opened the Pennsylvania Hospital Association’s (PHA) 2012 Annual Meeting with a keynote titled ‘Moving Beyond the Meltdown: Aligning Yourself for Growth Through Innovation,’ delivered to healthcare executives gathered in Austin, Texas. The PHA Annual Meeting brings together hospital and health system leaders from across Pennsylvania to engage on the most pressing policy, strategy, and operational challenges facing the sector. At a time when healthcare was navigating the early implementation of the Affordable Care Act and deep uncertainty about reimbursement and delivery models, Jim’s message — that growth through innovation was the path forward — was both timely and galvanizing. His session ran as the event’s opening keynote from 8:00 to 9:30 AM, setting a forward-looking tone for the entire meeting.
