Info

EHMA Annual Conference is an international knowledge sharing event. It is a meeting place where, according to EHMA's vision statement evidence, challenge and experience are valued and the "unthinkable" can be discussed. Participants coming from all around Europe and beyond will have the opportunity to bring and share their knowledge - derived from academic work and practical experience - and explore fundamental managerial and policy issues.

EHMA Annual Conference brings together policy makers, health managers, health professionals, educators and heads of research programmes. Our conference is characterised by international speakers and high quality presentations together with an informal and relaxed atmosphere. We work hard to ensure an informal atmosphere that facilitates networking.

2017 Call for Abstracts

The European Health Management Association is delighted to invite you to the 2017 EHMA Annual Conference to be held in the vibrant city of Milan, Italy from Tuesday 13 to Thursday 15 June 2017.

Hosted by Bocconi University, this year's Annual Conference will consider the topic of "Health Futures" from two perspectives. The first theme will be to identify external trends in demography, technology, economy and culture mean for the demands on and organisation of our Healthcare systems in the (near) future. The second related theme is to assess how such changes are impacting on the current reform agenda and in particular whether they are making service improvement more or less challenging to achieve.

EHMA is now seeking proposals for oral presentations and posters from researchers, managers and policymakers on the conference theme and for a number of additional Sub Themes including three Special Interest Groups. With the aim of being innovative and improving the conference experience both for delegates and presenters, 2017 candidates are asked to process their submissions according to one of the following categories and not the standard division Research/Practice:

Papers will be reviewed and selected on scientific quality, methods and relevance. Authors are particularly requested to clearly highlight the contribution of their paper to the Conference Theme. The submission deadline is Monday 23 January 2017.
