July 16, 2008 – Minneapolis, MN - Representatives from Lighthouse1, the industry leading provider of consumer driven healthcare (CDH) software solutions, announced today they were extremely pleased with the overall success of Revolution ’08, the first Lighthouse1 User Conference and Forum.
“We worked to create an environment that was relaxed enough to encourage networking and thought leadership, yet still maintained enough industry components to drive change,” said Jeff Brunsberg, Chief Market Officer for Lighthouse1. “Our post-conference surveys showed that Revolution ’08 attendees really appreciated the combination of learning and peer interaction. We are pleased that our conference scored such high marks from its participants.”
Revolution ’08 brought some of the most highly respected experts within the CDH industry together including former White House Senior Health Policy Advisor Roy Ramthun, President of HR Services for Fidelity Pat Goepel, BearingPoint Senior Manager Kirsten Trusko, Principal at True Course Consulting James Dean and Ashley Gillihan a partner at Alston & Bird in the Employee Benefits and Executive Compensation Group. Lighthouse1 executives and other CDH industry and business experts were also featured in key sessions. New York Times bestselling author and world explorer Dan Buettner delivered a highly engaging keynote speech on longevity, based on his newest book The Blue Zones.
For administrators, the conference provided in depth sessions aimed at improving efficiencies and administrator performance. This included the Lighthouse1 Lab, a unique interactive user session with Lighthouse1 resources available for in person coaching and instruction. Executives enjoyed strategic and operational sessions from leaders in the CDH industry.
“Revolution ’08 was a very unique CDH market convergence in that it combined learning opportunities, interactive sessions, and meeting with executives representing many key pieces of the health value chain,” said Kirsten Trusko, BearingPoint Senior Manager. “Speaking at the conference was an honor, and the opportunity to interact with leaders across so many categories of influence affecting health over these two days was of great value.”
Lighthouse1 will host its next user conference in the summer of 2009. Planning for that event has already begun.
