Stakeholder engagement, financial stewardship and a culture of innovation are critical to successful capital planning. From cost management to technology integration, the conversation highlights real-world lessons and emerging trends shaping the future of healthcare development.

“We’re making decisions about how to care for the next 100 years of patients. That takes strategy, not speed.” - Curtis Skolnick, CommonSpirit Health
