Behavioral Health Program

IHI Forum, December 9-12, 2007
Orlando, FL

Over the last three years, IBHI has worked in partnership with the Institute for HealthCare Improvement (IHI) to offer a program track and attract professionals from Behavioral Healthcare to the IHI National Forum. For health care leaders and learners who are passionate about improving care, IHI's National Forum (held December 9-12, 2007, in Orlando, Florida this year) is one of the most powerful professional events of the year. 

 

To encourage Behavioral Healthcare Organizations to attend, IHI has extended over a 50% discount to participants, which amounts to $1,095 if one participates over all four scheduled days.  IBHI is also pleased to offer several specific additional learning and networking opportunities during the Forum, which are described below.  Separate registration for both programs is required   Registration for the 2 main days of the IHI Forum is  $595, plus $300 for all the additional IBHI Track Elements;(or  $90 for those  attending only during the two day Forum.) 

 

Below you will find a summary of the behavioral healthcare program, especially the Second Colloquium on Improving Collaboration and Integration of Care Sunday December 9, 2007

 

Details are also on the IBHI Website www.ibhci.org   For separate IHI registration you need to also go to www.ihi.org.  We look forward to your questions, hearing from you, and hopefully seeing you in Orlando!  Much good cheer.
