GetWellNetwork CEO Michael O'Neil to Speak at Nelson Mullins Healthcare Conference

Michael O'Neil Addresses Impact of Health Bill on Healthcare IT, Hospitals and Health Systems


BETHESDA, MD--(Marketwire - May 26, 2010) -  GetWellNetwork founder and CEO Michael O'Neil will speak at the Nelson Mullins Healthcare conference on Wednesday, May 26, 2010 in Washington, DC. Nelson Mullins, a top 10 national healthcare practice group, is conducting a conference to provide opportunities to learn about the impact of healthcare legislation to the numerous sub-categories within the healthcare sector such as healthcare IT, Bio Tech, Hospice and Home Care companies, Hospitals, Long Term Care facilities, and Pharmacies.

As the leader in interactive patient care solutions, GetWellNetwork has been invited to speak about the specific impact that hospitals, health systems and healthcare IT industries will face as a result of recent healthcare legislation. 

"The recent changes in healthcare law provide both opportunities and challenges for our industry," said Michael O'Neil, CEO of GetWellNetwork, Inc. "As more than 30 million more Americans are insured, there is a clear opportunity to improve health outcomes for people who have not had access to health care coverage in the past. However, hospitals and caregivers across the country will face a dramatic influx of new patients who will need care; this conference explores the ripple effect of the new legislation across the variety of industries within the health care segment and all attendees will come away with new knowledge."

Nelson Mullins is hosting the healthcare conference at its office building, located at 101 Constitution Ave., Washington DC. More information about the conference, including how to register or to arrange dial-in can be found at http://www.nelsonmullins.com/seminars/Healthcare
