This announcement was made via a
press statement from Asia Inc Forum, in which they said the “Health Forum” will
focus on the theme of “Preparing for the Evolving Needs of Brunei’s Health
Care” and will feature Dr Harry Harris, a speaker from the United States.
Dr Harris is the Founder and
President of HealthCare California, the largest home health agency in Central
California. Established in 2004, HealthCare California works cooperatively with
other healthcare providers, such as home medical equipment companies and
homecare agencies, to provide patient access to quality healthcare.
“According to Dr Harris, global
populations are aging at an alarming rate and senior citizens are placing a
huge burden on healthcare systems as life expectancy continues to increase,”
reads the press release. “In the United States alone, about 76 million Baby
Boomers turned 65 of age in 2011.”
“Moreover, healthcare costs
throughout the work are rising with a global spending of US$5.8 billion
annually”
As nations continue to experience
increased demand for healthcare, cost containment will remain a major factor
globally and requires nations to reassess and review their healthcare costs
along with improved technologies. A native Californian, Dr Harris also served
at The White House, Office of the Secretary of Defence and National Alliance of
Business.
Aside from managing HealthCare
California, Dr Harris remains a global management consultant engaging with both
the corporations and government in over 100 nations.
“The Health Forum 2012 will bring
together up to 80 leading health care policy makers, practitioners and
academics from the public and private sectors in Brunei to promote and
stimulate thought on healthcare management,” added Asia Inc Forum in the press
release.
