As healthcare systems undergo rapid transformation, remote patient monitoring (RPM) stands at the forefront of redefining how care is delivered, measured, and scaled. The Remote Patient Monitoring Leadership Summit, taking place February 26–27, 2026, in Charlotte, North Carolina, is critically positioned to shape this evolution and here’s why every forward-thinking healthcare leader should be there.
1. A Gathering Built for Leaders, Not Generalists
Unlike sprawling expos with broad digital health agendas, this summit is designed specifically for executives and clinical leaders responsible for scaling, financing, and operationalizing RPM programs. Every discussion, session, and networking opportunity is curated to address real strategy, outcomes, and execution. Making your time spent here highly efficient and impactful. (ICD Conference)
Attendees will engage in focused discussions spanning reimbursement strategy, interoperability challenges, clinical adoption, and measurable results. All grounded in practical, real-world applications rather than surface-level trends.
2. Hear From World-Class Thought Leaders
A conference is only as strong as the minds leading its conversations, and the RPM Leadership Summit delivers an exceptional lineup of authoritative speakers whose insights are shaping the future of connected care:
Dr. David C. Rhew — Global CMO & VP of Healthcare, Microsoft
Considered one of healthcare’s most influential clinician executives, Dr. Rhew leads Microsoft’s healthcare strategy at the nexus of technology and clinical care. His work around AI, cloud technologies, clinician burden reduction, and expanded access to care makes him a pivotal voice in how RPM will evolve alongside next-generation digital health capabilities.
Dr. Jared Conley, MD, PhD, MPH — Associate Director, Healthcare Transformation Lab, Massachusetts General Hospital
As a physician, Harvard Medical School Faculty member, and strategic innovator at one of the nation’s most respected health systems, Dr. Conley brings deep expertise in deploying tech-enabled care models — including scaling RPM programs, improving care affordability, and integrating digital solutions into everyday clinical workflows.

3. Deep, Actionable Content — Not Just Trends
RPM is rapidly transitioning from pilot programs to enterprise-level systems that deliver measurable outcomes. At this summit, sessions go beyond conceptual innovation to deliver strategies you can implement now:
- How to scale RPM across service lines and care settings
- Integrating RPM data into clinical workflows
- Capturing reimbursement and navigating evolving policy landscapes
- Building sustainable partnerships with payers and technology providers
- Measuring clinical and financial impact for long-term program success
This is practical work, not just inspiring vision, aimed at preparing leaders for immediate and future demands in connected care.
4. High-Value Networking with Real Decision Makers
The summit’s curated format fosters meaningful interactions with peers who own RPM outcomes, budgets, and implementation decisions. These are the leaders who are shaping RPM strategy in real time, offering real conversations about what works, what doesn’t, and what’s next.
This environment accelerates partnerships, collaboration, and knowledge exchange far beyond what’s possible at larger, less focused events.
5. Efficient, ROI-Driven Experience
In just two days, attendees gain more actionable insights per hour than at massive conferences. With focused content, small-group discussions, and direct access to industry pioneers, this summit delivers a high return on time and investment, ideal for executives looking to drive strategic RPM growth in 2026 and beyond.
The Remote Patient Monitoring Leadership Summit 2026 is a must-attend event for healthcare leaders seeking to lead, not follow, in the connected care revolution. With its lineup of top-tier speakers, deep practical content, high-impact networking, and strategic focus, this summit will equip attendees with the insights and relationships necessary to transform RPM from pilot programs into scalable, outcome-driven solutions.
