Healthcare Innovation Starts Here

Digital Transformation involves ongoing exploration by today’s leaders, and our best advice is to not trek the journey alone. Our Healthcare Providers & Payers Virtual Assembly coming this April is set to be a groundbreaking opportunity for leaders to virtually connect on the current trends & challenges the industry is facing amid COVID-19. Our assemblies are virtual for the time being, but you can still expect the same high-level discussion & networking as a Millennium onsite experience. Go here to RSVP!

Healthcare Payers & Providers have been disrupted by COVID-19. Which is why we’re bringing together leaders in the space for a 2-day digital transformation think tank featuring keynotes, panels, interactive workshops & roundtables.

Our Featured Keynote Speaker for this virtual assembly is John Mattison, a prominent healthcare leader with over 28 years of experience as the Chief Medical Information Officer at Kaiser Permanente. He’s proved himself as a force to be reckoned with in healthcare – he received a Davies Award in 2012, brought Kaiser Permanente to Level 7 designation with HIMSS, and astonishingly completed projects for Kaiser Permanente more than a year ahead of schedule and $267 million under budget.

Throughout his career, he’s excelled at bringing innovation at scale, transforming health through personalized consumer-directed healthcare & motivating high-performance teams. This inspiring keynote will bring you exclusive insight & real-world advice on how to digitally transform your organization.

About John Mattison

John began his medical career at UC San Diego and Scripps Clinic, where he practiced in many clinical settings including primary care, critical care, preventive medicine, hyperbaric medicine, trauma and helicopter medicine, and held several directorships while at Scripps Clinic, including Quality, Utilization, and Critical Care. He joined Kaiser Permanente in 1989, and was appointed as Assistant Medical Director and Chief Medical Information Officer in 1992.

John’s interest in systems design began as a marine biologist when he created several software applications to model population behavior. He wrote his first electronic health record in 1984 and used fully automated medical records in his practice until the time he began a full-time commitment to healthcare informatics. He has built, designed, or implemented seven different EHR systems, most recently KP HealthConnect. His team helped build and deploy the first highly scalable version of this system, which today stands as the largest private sector implementation of an EHR in the US. John was director of the largest regional deployment, encompassing 5,000 physicians, 140 clinics, 13 hospitals, and 2.3 million members, but he is quick to identify his many colleagues within KP who have provided the support, the resources, and the skills necessary for such a monumental achievement. He has actively shaped a culture of extremely rapid issue escalation and resolution that became the single most critical success factor for this large scale and pioneering project.

He was also one of the founding members of the IMIA Workgroup on Organizational Aspects of Informatics, which focuses on the cultural change management required to successfully transform cultures with new technology. His team included many world class project managers who completed the project more than a year ahead of schedule and nearly $100 million under budget. KP has been recognized as the uncontested leader for both outpatient and inpatient systems, leading the country for hospitals awarded with the top HIMSS level 7 designation. In 2011, 6 of the hospitals in SCAL region, and 12 KP hospitals nationally were recognized among the top 118 “Most Connected Hospitals” by US News and World Report. KPHC also includes the largest and most active use of Personal Health Records (PHRs) in the nation. With over 60% of their eligible members using the PHR portal, they exchange over 25,000 secure emails daily with their patients. Whether it’s US News & World Report, JD Powers, or National Council on Quality Assurance, Kaiser Permanente tops nearly every third party assessment for quality of care.

John has co-chaired the National KP IT Infrastructure Governance for the past four years, and he also chaired the Inter-Regional Business Governance Group since its inception. In addition, he chairs the national governance oversight of Business Continuity, Disaster Recovery, and Data Center Strategy. He continues his active participation on National HIT Strategy, Security Council, Care Delivery, and Risk Management.

Our Healthcare Providers Transformation Assembly is set to be an amazing event with an all-star group of today’s leading executives, thought leaders, and analysts. We’re especially proud to announce that Ronald Paulus, President and CEO at RAPMD Strategic Advisors, will be our featured Keynote Speaker at the Gala Dinner for this event. Ronald is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to Provider Healthcare, and his background as the past President and CEO of Mission Health, a $2 billion integrated health system, is a large testament to that. Stay tuned for an exclusive Q&A with Ronald in the weeks leading up to the event!

Healthcare Provider Innovation Starts Here

Digital Transformation involves ongoing exploration by today’s leaders, and our best advice is to not trek the journey alone. Our Healthcare Provider Transformation Assembly coming this April in Atlanta is set to be an inspiring event featuring our Keynote Speaker Ronald Paulus, President and CEO at RAPMD Strategic Advisors.

We know what you’re thinking…

This isn’t Your Run-of-the-Mill Conference or Summit.

Truthfully, we really aren’t a fan of those. Our Founders, like many C-Suite executives today, became disillusioned by the slew of retail conferences, summits, and events on the market today that promised “world-class networking” opportunities with leading industry decision-makers. In reality, they found that these events had antiquated discussion topics presented in an impersonal format, and quite frankly, it seemed like just about anyone could attend the event. 

What Makes a Millennium Assembly Different? 

We’re dedicated to creating the greatest think tank of executives from some of the most prominent companies today. Our invite-only events consist of 55 carefully selected leaders holding C-Suite, EVP, and SVP positions from Fortune 500 companies.

These attendees are provided the opportunity to intimately connect in workshops & roundtables with fewer than 25 people, with interactive networking opportunities at our cocktail hour and Gala Keynote Dinner and personalized 1:1 meetings. This is an experience like no other, all taking place at some of the most beautiful hotel and resort venues in the country.

We’re serious about executive education. Our Assembly Agendas are data-driven and curated from our industry-expert Advisory Board, a group of 26 industry movers and shakers with a proven record of digitally transforming organizations from the ground-up. The prevailing topics and trends discussed at this assembly will cover the most poignant challenges affecting leaders today. 

The Millennium Alliance’s goal is to change the way leaders look at executive education, and you won’t find this level of content, discussion, and networking anywhere else. We’re on the journey to digitally transform the healthcare provider industry with you.
