Over 200 experts lined up to speak at World Hospital Congress
The 44th World Hospital Congress, an event organised by the International Hospital Federation (IHF), will take place on 8-11 November in Barcelona, Spain
Hosted by La Unió Catalana d’Hospitals (Catalan Hospital, Health and Social Services Association - UCH), the Congress is poised to be one of the first hybrid healthcare management events that will happen in the region.
