Healthcare Delivery & Innovation Conference

Health Care Associate Katy Pollitt will present "Healthcare Has a Math Problem: Evaluating Physician Shortages and Solutions" at 9:05 a.m. on Friday, September 27. She will discuss the growing crisis of patient needs far outweighing physician supply in the post-pandemic era. With a focus on the specialty of cardiology, the program will outline the existing physician shortage problem, and discuss why the problem continues to grow, including burnout, demographic shifts in new workforce entrants, and other underlying problems. The session will offer potential solutions and associated legal pitfalls. It will:

• Provide a clear view of physician shortage projections.
• Increase understanding of continuing physician shortages and worsening patient access.
• Evaluate possible solutions to consider when addressing growing care gaps.
