The lunch keynote speaker is American Health Care Association President and CEO Mark Parkinson. Parkinson served as the 45th Governor of the State of Kansas. Prior to that, he was the owner and operator of long-term care facilities in Kansas and Missouri.

Parkinson has received numerous awards including being named the recipient of the McKnight’s Pinnacle Career Achievement Award in 2024.

We also have a live conversation with American Hospital Association Executive Vice President, Government Relations and Public Policy Stacey Hughes and a video on national home health and hospice topics from William Dombi of the National Association of Home Care and Hospice.
