In his presentation, healthcare speaker Peter Salgo predicts that the progress in fighting heart disease will have a tremendous impact on our nation’s healthcare delivery system and the future of medicine itself. While explaining how current medical breakthroughs will allow today’s Americans to live longer than any other generation, he also explores the future of healthcare and how the industry must prepare to serve.
