SUMMARY:CANCELLED - DFWHC's 72nd Annual Awards Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:It is with great regret the DFW Hospital Council (DFWHC) announced today the cancellation of its in-person 72nd Annual Awards Luncheon originally scheduled for October 14 at the Irving Convention Center.\n\nWhile the Luncheon has been cancelled\, virtual recognition of the recipients of the Distinguished Health Service Award\, Young Healthcare Executive of the Year Award and the Kerney Laday\, Sr. Trustee of the Year Award will still take place\, with a video to be created honoring these important friends of healthcare.\n\n“Following a meeting with our board of trustees\, we decided it was in the best interest for all involved if the Annual Awards Luncheon was cancelled due to the COVID-19 virus\,” said Stephen Love\, president/CEO of DFWHC. “It was not an easy decision to cancel an event that has honored so many heroes over the decades who have supported quality healthcare in North Texas. Since the luncheon attracts approximately 1\,000 attendees\, we believe in the current COVID-19 pandemic such a gathering would not be a good public health decision.”\n\nYoung Healthcare and Kerney Laday\, Sr. nominees are still being accepted until the July 17 deadline. The DFWHC Board of Trustees will judge the nominees and announce the recipients in August. The Distinguished Health Service Award\, an honor dating back to 1947\, will also be determined by the Board and announced during the same month. A virtual video honoring these recipients will be posted and distributed in October.\n\nNext year’s Annual Awards Luncheon has already been scheduled for October 20\, 2021 at the Irving Convention Center. This year’s original keynote speaker Jim Craig\, will serve as speaker during the event.\n\n“We are thankful to the Irving Convention Center and Jim Craig for graciously working with us during these difficult times\,” Love said. “We are looking forward to hosting our Luncheon in Irving and hearing Jim Craig’s patriotic message.”\n\nFor questions\, please contact Chris Wilson at chrisw@dfwhc.org.

SUMMARY:DFWHC and Accenture Webinar "Texans Want Virtual Healthcare"
DESCRIPTION:The DFW Hospital Council (DFWHC) and Accenture will co-host the webinar “Texans Want Virtual Healthcare. Here’s How Providers Can Grow from It.” on Wednesday\, October 14 from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m.\, CDT.\n\nThe complimentary event will examine a groundbreaking Texas survey by Accenture detailing the surprising results of telehealth usage during the COVID-19 pandemic. The survey revealed over twice as many Texans utilized telehealth for preventive care\, checkups\, diagnosis or treatment following the virus outbreak. In addition:\n\n•	One-fourth (25%) of Texans surveyed said they first learned about virtual healthcare following the outbreak of COVID-19;\n•	Approximately nine in 10 Texans (89%) surveyed believed that virtual care options should be available to everyone.\n\nThe panel discussion will include Mark Olney\, Chase Parks and Laura Zhang of Accenture. DFWHC President/CEO Stephen Love will serve as host.\n\n“The survey revealed a lot of Texans got a taste for what it’s like to see their physicians and specialists from the safety and comfort of their home\,” said Olney\, a managing director in Accenture’s Health practice and the study’s lead author. “Now patients are eager to get more of that access\, convenience and time savings.”\n\nThe study also notes that rural Texans\, in particular\, have much to gain from access to virtual healthcare.\n\n“Riding the momentum in virtual care\, Texas hospitals have an opportunity to play a bigger role in caring for rural communities and other underserved populations\,” Olney said.\n\nYou can register here.\n\nFor information\, please contact Chris Wilson at 972-719-4900 or chrisw@dfwhc.org.
