2026 CONFERENCE OVERVIEW
We are excited to announce the 35th Annual Healthcare Contact Center Times Conference, designed specifically for healthcare access and contact center leaders. This year’s event will bring together professionals from clinical and non-clinical patient contact centers, scheduling and access centers, and billing or revenue cycle call centers.
We continue to broaden our focus to include leaders in healthcare “Access” departments—such as VPs of Access, Patient Experience, and Customer Engagement—to foster collaboration across all facets of healthcare communication and coordination.
The role of healthcare contact centers continues to expand as they become the front door to the patient journey. This year’s program will highlight proven strategies, success stories, and lessons learned from organizations that are leading the way in operational excellence, quality metrics, staff engagement, and customer service. We’ll also dive into the latest trends in AI, automation, and digital transformation.
Whether you oversee a clinical or non-clinical contact center, lead a healthcare access department, or manage patient communications, you’ll find valuable insights and actionable takeaways to strengthen your team and your organization.
Join us June 3–5, 2026, in Atlanta for an energizing and practical event where industry experts share real-world experiences, best practices, and new technologies that will shape the future of healthcare access and contact centers.
