About The Symposium
This year’s Symposium will explore access to healthcare, which continues to be a major concern for many individuals. It will examine the ways in which this access has been broadened and the ways in which accessibility can be improved in order to make healthcare a true right for all. The Symposium will highlight the need for broader changes in accessibility to reflect evolving healthcare needs, delivery systems, and equity concerns.
