SAE Media Group's 7th Annual Pre-Filled Syringes West Coast Conference will be back for 2023 in San Diego to bring together the device developers, innovative biotech, and big pharma.

This year's conference will explore the exciting advances in the combination product drug delivery space and a future outlook exploring how pharma, device developers and regulators can work together to encourage innovation.

With the injectable drug delivery industry rapidly advancing year-to-year, administration using pre-filled syringes, auto-injectors, and pen-injectors are increasingly common. Innovations in device technology, such as connected devices are leading the way in device design in addition to injectable delivery devices for novel and large volume drugs. With the need for self-administration growing, there is an enhanced demand for on-body injectors and digitalised health as well as patient centricity. We are beginning to see environmental sustainability being incorporated into aspects of device lifecycle from design to manufacturing and the use of the device. This year's conference looks to address these hot topics through case studies and industry insights.

As Medicare and other healthcare payers experiment with alternative payment models, the pressure is building on hospitals and healthcare systems, as well as post-acute care and outpatient providers, to deliver care in a more efficient way while improving patient outcomes. Among the most important issues in alternative payment models are hospital readmissions readmissions are expensive, a metric of poor-quality care, and often a sign of poor downstream functional outcomes. However, many readmissions are potentially preventable. The Hospital Readmission Reduction Program implemented by CMS reduces payments to acute care facilities with a high 30-day readmission rate. The key to keeping 30-day readmission rates low is preventing potentially avoidable hospitalizations by improving transitions of care and by providing effective primary care interventions. Keeping patients healthy and ensuring timely follow-up is paramount to preventing readmissions. Providers also need to ensure that the correct discharge orders for follow-up care are carried out. Additionally, including the patients and their families in the decision-making will lead to better understanding and hopefully better outcomes.

This conference will bring together healthcare leaders to highlight successful hospital strategies that reduce hospital readmissions, including improved discharge processes; successful reduction strategies for hospital acquired infections; patient safety; the impact of social determinants of health; reducing healthcare-associated infections; health IT solutions, artificial intelligence and digital health; optimizing transitions of care; the role of community partnerships; patient engagement strategies; providing palliative care across the continuum; health equity; payer-provider collaborations and more.

Meeting patients’ needs and improving financial performance have become major focus areas for hospital and health system executives facing payment pressures and the market shift towards patient-centered and value-based care. And as patients increasingly shop for healthcare services, enhancing patient experience is regarded as a potential driver of hospital performance, since it may build reputation and brand, strengthen customer loyalty, and boost utilization of hospital services through increased referrals to family and friends. In addition, hospitals’ reimbursements from private insurers and Medicare are increasingly tied to quality performance metrics that capture patient experience as well as clinical outcomes. And improving patient experience is one of the fundamental concepts underlying the Triple Aim approach to optimizing health system performance. And overall, good patient experience is an important outcome unto itself, as patients intrinsically value the interpersonal aspects of the clinician-patient relationship, such as compassion, communication, and an overall sense of being treated with dignity and respect.

This conference will explore how good patient experience is associated with higher hospital profitability and better care. Learn mechanisms through which patient experience can improve financial performance and patient-centered care and understand why patient experience is now nationally – and globally – recognized as an independent dimension of healthcare quality. Gain insights from sessions that will dive into topics such as how to improve patient experience in the emergency department, engaging physicians, how to leverage technology, driving a strong patient experience culture, digitization, team-based care, communication strategies, patient journey mapping, and more.

Digital health is the intersection between technology and healthcare, and it is playing and increasingly important role in healthcare today and is a central focus for hospitals, health systems and health plans. Advances in artificial intelligence, big data, robotics, machine learning, smart phones, social networks, and internet applications continue to bring about major changes in digital healthcare. The use of these technologies is not only changing the way we communicate, but also giving providers a more holistic view of patient health through access to data and giving patients more control over their health.

Digital healthcare has the potential to prevent disease and lower healthcare costs, while helping patients monitor and manage chronic conditions, and better manage and track their health and wellness-related activities. Healthcare providers also can benefit greatly from advances in digital healthcare. Digital tools give providers an extensive view of a patient’s health by significantly increasing access to data. The result is increased efficiency and improved medical outcomes. This conference will explore ways in which providers can embrace this revolution and leverage digital healthcare to facilitate prevention and early diagnosis of life-threatening diseases, manage chronic conditions outside of the traditional healthcare settings, reduce inefficiencies, improve access, reduce costs, increase quality, and make healthcare more personalized for patients.
