Practice redesign for workforce sustainability is crucial for quality improvement. But how and where to start?

This two-day, in-person AMA STEPS Forward® Innovation Academy boot camp is specifically designed for clinical and operational change agents looking to eliminate unnecessary work and free up more time to focus on what matters most—patient care.

“A phenomenal 2-day conference!”

Gain proven tools to implement in the following areas:

  • Getting rid of stupid stuff
  • De-implementation (STOP this and START that)
  • Debunking regulatory myths
  • EHR inbox optimization
  • Team-based care practice fundamentals
  • Building bridges between clinicians and administrators
  • Reducing barriers to taking PTO
  • Making the business case to leadership

Through breakout sessions, interactive activities, thought sharing, tactical strategy breakdowns and how-to examples, this boot camp will equip attendees with the time-saving tools and strategies needed to reform their organizations and enhance professional satisfaction.

Don’t miss this opportunity to gain best practices from top physician experts, network with like-minded peers, engage in cross-sector collaboration, and learn from each other’s successes and mistakes. Together, we can empower each other to improve patient care, prioritize professional well-being and restore joy into the practice of medicine!

“Super actionable, practical, smart suggestions, and phenomenal discussions.”


We strongly encourage health care leaders to attend as a dyad, with both a clinical and operational representative present.
