Inpatient Flow Operations Virtual Summit

Tuesday, Sept 1, 2026  | 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM CT

Where Inpatient Flow Moves Forward

Hospitals are at an inflection point. Today’s ED boarding, workforce shortages, and rising length-of-stay pressures can’t be solved by yesterday’s tools. Inpatient leaders are expected to deliver safe, predictable care amid bottlenecks that shift by the hour — a challenge that demands new solutions and deeper expertise.

That’s why we created Transform Inpatient Flow Operations Virtual Summit. This focused, half-day summit within Transform Virtual Series is designed exclusively for hospital medicine, nursing, and throughput teams who need a place to go deeper, learn from like-minded peers, and tackle inpatient flow with urgency and clarity.

At Transform, you’ll see what’s actually working today: AI-powered predictive insights that highlight issues early, real-time coordination that stabilizes the day, and proven playbooks that accelerate discharges, ease boarding, reduce transfer declines, and create capacity without adding beds. This is where inpatient leaders come together to move flow forward.
