Join Project ECHO at the MetaECHO 2017 Conference on September 13-16 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The convening will bring together more than 600 ECHO partners from across the United States and around the world, as well as government officials, health policy experts, and funders.
Since 2003, Project ECHO has brought high-quality specialty care to hundreds of thousands of people in poor, rural and underserved communities. Using videoconferencing technology, Project ECHO teams primary care providers in remote areas with specialists at academic health centers to manage and treat complex chronic conditions – from opioid use disorder to rheumatoid arthritis to HIV – based on best practices.
Today, Project ECHO partners are using the model to share their expertise, reducing knowledge gaps and bringing best-practice care to more patients than ever before. ECHO is also being adapted in other fields, including education, community policing, veterinary science and beyond. The work of the ECHO community has been recognized globally for the dramatic promise it holds for the future of healthcare delivery and beyond.
The conference will be held at the Albuquerque Convention Center and the Hyatt Regency Albuquerque.
