  Key Summit Topics & Structure
The Global Medical Forum Foundation's first European Summit will explore
the following questions:
- How can solidarity, choice and cost efficiency be combined in designing
efficient healthcare systems and policies?
- What are the U.S. consumer-directed care experiences and what is their
relevance to European markets?
- What are the tools needed for the health consumer to manage the
tradeoff between prevention, treatment and fund savings?
- Are European consumers interested in more choice and
responsibility? Case studies from European private insurance and high
co-payment environments.
The GMF Summit: Berlin exposes European healthcare stakeholders to
U.S. experts who are engaged in managing consumer-directed plans.
Presentations focus on best practices in enhancing consumer choice and
innovations that enable "personal health management".
The one-day program consists of two modules to introduce the topics and a
concluding round table to formulate tangible conclusions and relevant
information for an agenda for European systems.
Each module includes short presentations followed by thirty minutes of
discussion with the moderator, the panel and the audience. The
roundtable follows a more open discussion format with circa five minutes
of brief statements by the panelists and the moderator, followed by sixty
minutes of discussion with the panel and the audience.
In order to maintain an atmosphere of discussion, the audience is limited to
100 European and North American healthcare leaders, policymakers and
the press.
