The National Conference on Navigating the Future in Healthcare Management (NCNFHM) has been organised by Sri Ramachandra Faculty of Management Sciences (SRFMS), which is part of Sri Ramachandra Institute of Higher Education & Research (SRIHER) in Chennai. The conference is focused on different aspects of recent trends, current practices & scope of improvement, challenges & solutions in hospital and healthcare management. As the healthcare industry is driven by technology, patients and families' demands due to exposure and awareness, competitive market, new updates in disease patterns, innovation, regulations and globalisation, every healthcare professional needs to update their knowledge and skills to align with recent trends. In this era where healthcare systems are facing unprecedented challenges and opportunities, the role of hospital administrators has never been more critical. The essence of this conference is to explore the evolving and changing landscape in Hospital Administration. Hospital Administrators are the strategic architects who balance operational efficiency with compassionate patient care, navigating complex regulatory environments while steering their institutions toward innovation and excellence. They foster a culture of collaboration, manage resources judiciously, and implement policies that not only comply with standards but also enhance patient outcomes, enabling all stakeholders' satisfaction.
