Impact of the Affordable Care Act to be Featured at Staffing Industry Analysts' Annual Healthcare Staffing Summit

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Oct. 2, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Staffing Industry Analysts, the global advisor on contingent work, today announced it will hold its annual Healthcare Staffing Summit October 23 through October 25, 2013 at the Fairmont Hotel Millennium Park in Chicago, IL. As medical providers all expect an increase in patients due to a greater level of insured patients from the Affordable Care Act, healthcare staffing providers are on the front lines trying to staff the facilities. At the three day conference more than 300 staffing executives will share insights and strategies on how to recruit talent, manage demand and work with hospitals and other medical professionals.  In addition to discussing the Affordable Care Act, the Summit will feature more than 30 sessions and networking opportunities on travel nursing, per diem nursing, locum tenens, allied medical, IT, finance and operations.

"This year healthcare staffing providers not only have the challenge of providing great service to the medical community, they now have to help the healthcare community anticipate future needs in ways in which they hadn't in the past," stated Barry Asin, president of Staffing Industry Analysts. "At the Healthcare Staffing Summit, healthcare staffing executives have the opportunity to share their wisdom and insights with others, unlike any other forum."

Keynote speakers include:

• Matt Dixon, co-author of The Challenger Sale. Best-selling sales strategy author Dixon will help empower organizations toward bigger sales successes by teaching for differentiation, tailoring for resonance, and taking control of the commercial interaction.
• Mark McClellan, MD, PhD and past administrator for CMS and former commissioner of the FDA. McClellan will discuss current trends in the U.S. healthcare system and provide insight into how these trends will transform the healthcare landscape.
