Panel description: As the healthcare ecosystem evolves, there’s growing momentum to rethink traditional approaches and embrace new, collaborative models that reduce burden, enhance agility, and deliver better outcomes for patients. In this session, industry leaders and FDA collaborators will explore how organizations are identifying and implementing smarter ways of working — from streamlining quality system expectations to reimagining performance oversight.

The session will begin with a leadership perspective from an industry executive on their organization’s pursuit of efficiency through innovative engagement models. This includes examples like the Voluntary Improvement Program (VIP), among others, that illustrate the real-world impact of proactive partnership, aligned goals, and cultural commitment to continuous improvement.

A dynamic panel will follow, diving into:

– Opportunities for reducing duplication and audit fatigue

– How regulatory collaboration can unlock operational value

– The role of leadership in driving meaningful, scalable change

– Cultural shifts that enable sustainable efficiency

– Insights from real-world implementations and emerging models

This conversation offers a timely look at what’s possible when industry and FDA work together to transform vision into value — for organizations, regulators, and most importantly, patients.
