Priorities 2010 is the biennial conference of the International Society on Priorities in Health Care (ISPHC). The 8th International Conference will be held in Boston, Massachusetts, USA at the Westin Waltham-Boston, Friday, April 23 to Sunday, April 25, 2010.

Priority Setting in Difficult Economic Times is this year's conference theme.

This timely topic will allow us to squarely address the financial crisis that has challenged the ability of health systems across the globe with questions about how to set health spending priorities when resources are more severely constrained, and deliver affordable health care.

NOTE: The meeting is scheduled earlier than our usual meeting time (September/October), so that conference attendees for Priorities 2010 and the Harvard University Program in Ethics and Health 5th Annual International Conference, which will focus this year on the ethics of procedures in priority setting, can attend both meetings affordably.

The Priorities 2010 discounted group overnight sleeping room rate at the Westin Waltham Boston hotel is also available for early arrival.
