U.S. HEALTH FORUM
A peer-led forum for healthcare executives leading technology, security, resilience, and innovation in today’s clinical environment.
THE COMMITMENT
Strengthen healthcare technology leadership through peer exchange, shared learning, collaboration, and practical resources.
CYBER RESILIENCE • CLINICAL SYSTEMS • RESPONSIBLE AI • INFRASTRUCTURE • GOVERNANCE
MANDATE
Healthcare technology leaders manage enterprise risk while supporting care that cannot pause. This forum gives leaders a trusted space to compare approaches, pressure-test decisions, and turn shared experience into practical insight they can put to work.
Senior leaders facing similar responsibilities and challenges, with a member-led agenda grounded in firsthand experience.
Clear attribution, visible leadership, and an open approach to sharing useful ideas with the broader healthcare community.
Each cycle is built to produce something members can use—actionable insight, a decision aid, or a valuable peer connection.
PRIORITIES
The agenda is set by members and changes with the environment. These domains establish the common ground.
Preparedness, recovery, third-party risk, identity, and the operating decisions that protect care continuity.
Governance, clinical safety, workforce adoption, architecture, and evidence for moving from pilots to durable value.
EHR strategy, interoperability, digital workflows, reliability, and the technology friction experienced by care teams.
Modernization, cloud, data platforms, technical debt, observability, and disciplined investment in core foundations.
Portfolio choices, talent, sourcing, governance, value realization, and stronger partnership with clinical operations.
Board communication, regulatory readiness, risk decisions, and leadership through sustained change and constraint.
