Conferences

Health care’s complex challenges require leaders who can study issues from a variety of perspectives. The Minnesota Hospital Association is committed to providing Minnesota’s hospital leaders with the information they need in a timely and cost effective manner. MHA holds five conferences each year for hospital executives and trustees that focus on current, relevant topics to help hospital leaders now and in the future. 

MHA Annual Meeting

Each September, hospital leaders gather to hear from exceptional, forward-thinking speakers on ways to move health care forward and to network and share best practices with colleagues from around the state. The 2018 Annual Meeting will be held Sept. 19-21 at Madden’s on Gull Lake in Brainerd, MN. View the conference brochure. Click here to make a reservation at Madden's.

Biannual Trustee Conferences

Twice a year, in January and July, MHA hosts a conference to help trustees stay on the cutting edge of our constantly evolving health care environment. The January and July Trustee Conferences allow trustees, hospital executives and physician leaders to hone their governance skills and to network and exchange ideas. The 2019 January Trustee Conference will be held Jan. 11-13, 2019. The 2019 July Trustee Conference will be held July 12-14, 2019.

Every fall, MHA partners with the Healthcare Financial Management Association (HFMA) to provide hospital chief executive officers, chief financial officers, chief operating officers, directors of nursing, risk officers and business management staff with the tools they need to ensure the financial well-being of their organizations. Specific tracks for critical access hospitals and PPS hospitals ensure participants receive the most valuable information for their facility. The 2018 MHA-HFMA Fall Finance Conference will be held Oct. 11-12 at the Crowne Plaza Minneapolis West in Plymouth. View the event brochure or register.
