2026 Discharge Planning & Capacity Management Summit

2026 Discharge Planning & Capacity Management Summit is organized by Business Research & Intelligence (BRI) Network and will be held from Apr 27 - 28, 2026 at Loews Portofino Bay Hotel at Universal Orlando Resort, Orlando, Florida, United States of America.

Leveraging Early Planning, Technology and Teamwork to Optimize Patient Flow and Reduce Length of Stay

Description:
Discharge delays remain one of healthcare’s most costly and preventable challenges, contributing to overcrowded units, inefficient resource use and avoidable patient harm. Despite decades of improvement efforts, many delays are not due to unresolved medical issues but to late-stage communication breakdowns, inadequate preparation for transitions and reactive rather than proactive planning approaches that miss critical windows for intervention.

Business Research Intelligence Network presents the Discharge Planning & Capacity Management Summit, bringing together discharge coordinators, case managers, nursing leaders, care transition specialists and operational executives to explore evidence-based strategies for transforming discharge from a last-minute task into a continuous, collaborative process that begins on day one of admission.

The summit provides practical knowledge to improve discharge efficiency, reduce unnecessary length of stay and enhance care transitions through early patient and family engagement, structured multidisciplinary rounds, predictive analytics and AI-powered tools. Join us as we explore how organizations are using systematic approaches to reduce non-medical delays, prevent readmissions and create seamless transitions from hospital to home or post-acute settings.
