Value-Based Healthcare Conference 2021
The inaugural conference on Value-Based Health Care was held in Perth, Western Australia 27 - 28 May 2021. The aim of the conference was to showcase and celebrate value-based healthcare innovation, initiatives, implementation, research, and training from all areas of the health care system, with discussion on topics as diverse as cancer, stroke, dental health, and more. Focus was given to practical applications of VBHC, rather than a theoretical approach, with innovative opportunities for involvement and discussions about how to put VBHC into practice.
