Nurses & Physicians @ HLTH USA

Your go-to resource for all things frontline care

Clinicians are the heartbeat of healthcare and the key to driving its transformation. Yet despite being on the front lines, they’re often left out of the conversations that shape care delivery. At HLTH USA, we’re changing that.

What’s Coming Back

Now in our third year of Nurses @ HLTH, we’re doubling down on clinician-led innovation—and expanding our commitment to physicians too. If you’re ready to disrupt, design, or ditch the old way of doing things, this is your event.

  • Nurse & Clinician Insights Program: A ½-day curated program spotlighting bold care models and real solutions that cut admin chaos and build a stronger, more sustainable workforce.
  • Nurse Hackathon & Pitch Competition: A ½-day hands-on event where nurses and clinicians tackle workforce burnout and clinical inefficiencies head-on—walking away with working prototypes, not just ideas.
  • Nurse Innovators Pavilion: An expanded showcase of nurse-led and nurse-approved startups solving healthcare’s biggest pain points.
  • Clinician-Focused Roundtables: New sessions bringing together providers and health tech leaders to tackle real-world care delivery challenges.
  • Future of Care Delivery Roundtables: Interactive discussions on virtual care, team-based models, and integrating technology into clinical workflows.
  • Conversations on AI & Automation: Exploring how AI-driven tools are reducing administrative burdens, improving documentation, and enhancing patient outcomes.
  • Physicians @ HLTH: Invite-only roundtables, a dedicated networking reception, and clinician social events. CME credits available.
  • Networking Breakfasts & Receptions: Find your people and maybe your next collaborator.
