2026 Annual Conference

Please join us for the 2026 MNASCA Annual Conference, held Thursday, October 8 at the Minneapolis Marriott Southwest! We are excited to welcome ASC leaders and healthcare professionals from across the region for insightful discussions, professional networking, and actionable learning. 

Attendees will gain practical strategies to navigate today’s ever-evolving outpatient care landscape—from legislative updates and compliance tools to patient-centered operational practices. Whether you attend the full conference or a single session, we appreciate your engagement and participation. And don't forget about MNASCA's 20th Anniversary. This year marks a significant milestone in the association's history and will be celebrated during a special reception following the conference. 

Conference highlights will include:

• Opening and Closing Keynote Sessions
• Breakout Sessions & Roundtables - From compliance tips to patient experience strategies, breakout sessions offered attendees valuable takeaways they could immediately apply in their organizations.
• Legislative & Regulatory Updates - Tom Poul (MNASCA) will provide key updates on the 2026 Minnesota Legislative Session and summarize the federal policies impacting ASCs and outpatient healthcare.
• Networking & Exhibits
  The Exhibit Hall will buzz with connections, resources, and innovative solutions from MNASCA’s valued sponsors and exhibitors.
