AHA Rural Health Care Leadership Conference 2027

It takes place at Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek in Orlando, Florida.

The listed audience includes hospital and health system executives, administrators, trustees, physician executives, nursing leaders, public health officials, community partners, and emerging and next-generation leaders.

It is most useful for rural hospital executives, administrators, trustees and nursing leaders, since the conference has run for over 40 years under the American Hospital Association and targets leaders in rural care delivery and workforce. Clinicians seeking clinical updates, or urban system leaders, would get less, since the focus is leadership and strategy for rural organizations and keynote names such as Jason Feifer of Entrepreneur Magazine point to a general management angle.

Hospital executives and trustees at leadership conferences usually wear business casual to business professional, such as suits or blazers. Orlando in late January is mild, but a light jacket helps in air-conditioned ballrooms at the Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek.
