If you're joining us in D.C. or just following along from your desktop, there's an easy way to stay current: keep an eye on the hashtag #InnovateCare14. Advisory Board staff and attendees will be tweeting throughout the day, and especially during the mid-morning and mid-afternoon breakout sessions. (You don't need Twitter to follow the #InnovateCare14 feed, though it certainly helps.)
Select speeches and panels will also be broadcast online, too. I've listed those out below—accompanied by suggested reading material, if helpful—and you can catch the webcast by visiting https://cis2014.advisory.com.
