Strategic forum for healthcare leaders to address escalating anesthesia challenges
Medaxion, a leader in anesthesia-focused information systems, today announced the 9th Annual Anesthesia Economics Summit, taking place Feb. 26–28, 2026 at the Hotel Bennett in Charleston, South Carolina. This exclusive event convenes senior hospital executives, anesthesia directors, and C-suite leaders to surface best practices and strategies that confront the defining challenges in anesthesia operations.
Built on nearly a decade of partnerships with top anesthesia and hospital leaders, the Anesthesia Economics Summit is a private, invitation-only forum designed to elevate dialogue around workforce scarcity, rising costs, operational efficiency, and sustainable anesthesia service models.
“We’re hosting the Summit because we’re at a critical inflection point for anesthesia services nationwide,” said Jeff McLaren, CEO at Medaxion. “During interviews and panel discussions, decision-makers can share insights and solutions tailored to real-world operational pressures. We’re excited to foster meaningful peer-to-peer engagement and benchmarking that leaders can immediately apply to protect margin, optimize staffing, and strengthen continuity of care.”
