An eventful first week

We are closing in on the end of Week 1 and thus far the delegation's has been studious attending 3-4 seminars a day with topics ranging from Hospital Facilities Design to US Healthcare Systems to Billing and Reimbursement Methodologies for Hospitals + Physicians. Throughout the week, the group has sampled various cuisines such as Japanese sushi, sub sandwiches, pizza, and of course, Chinese Szechuan! In the evening, the delegation has either been resting and socializing or perusing the nearby Inner Harbor. Here's to a great first week! We're all eager for the weeks ahead.
