Description

Presenter: Dr. Joey Mattingly, PharmD, MBA, PhD
Associate Professor & Vice Chair of Research at the University of Utah College of Pharmacy 

While the mission-driven impact of healthcare hospitality organizations is widely recognized, translating that impact into measurable value remains a challenge. This session explores emerging approaches to assessing both economic and social value, including cost offsets, avoided burdens, and system-level benefits. Participants will gain practical insight into how economic evaluation tools can strengthen sustainability, funding discussions, and strategic partnerships.
