DANVILLE –  Hillary Clinton will serve as the keynote speaker for Geisinger’s upcoming national healthcare symposium, “From Crisis To Cure: Revitalizing America’s Healthcare System,” according to a press release from the health system.

The invitation-only event will be held Nov. 8-10 on the Danville campus of Geisinger Medical Center and will bring together a panel of the nation’s leading healthcare experts on policy, patient experience, wellness and technology. 

“We have invited the greatest minds to participate in a powerful conversation about the future of health in America,” said David T. Feinberg, M.D., MBA, Geisinger president and CEO. “There are plenty of people talking about what’s not working but it’s time to change that narrative. Geisinger’s history of innovation and our commitment to improving the patient experience served as the impetus for hosting this symposium.”

In addition to the former first lady, U.S. senator and secretary of state, the symposium will also host speakers on topics from the current state of health care to preventative medicine to the patient experience.

Among the list of other speakers is Howard Dean – who besides serving as governor of Vermont and the chairman of the Democratic National Convention – is a medical doctor. Dean plans to speak on the "Positive Impact of the Private Sector in Healthcare."

“We look forward to the discussions, the challenges, and the questions the symposium speakers will undoubtedly raise,” said Dr. Feinberg.  “We realize we can’t sit back and wait for healthcare to change. It’s our responsibility and it starts by disrupting healthcare from the inside out.”
