LTC 100 is the premier leadership and strategy conference for executives in long term care, skilled nursing, and transitional to share best practices, strategize for the future and help position our sector for success in the evolving healthcare environment.

LTC 100 will focus on anticipating and preparing for the future of healthcare and what it will take to influence the direction of healthcare reform. This will require forging relationships with many constituents — hospitals, doctors, other post acute providers, managed care providers, legislators and the public. To succeed, long term care will need to assert its position and solidify its value proposition in the healthcare continuum.

Join us May 5–8, 2012 at the Ritz-Carlton Naples Beach for the 14th Annual LTC 100 Conference!
