Talk Tactics, Not Panels
The content is going to be a mix of hands-on keyboard workshops, breakouts, and debates, not hour-long keynotes. Let's get into specifics and get actionable advice, templates, and methods.

No Frills
We're focused on the content, not high end production. It adds to the intimacy and a great way to mask our lack of budget.
Curation
We'll pair you up in small groups to meet people working on similar things to build the right network
We’ll Have Some Fun

Breakouts
How to Do Evals
Everyone agrees evals matter, almost nobody actually runs them. How to measure whether your AI features work before your users do it for you.
— Darshan Kalola, Anthropic
How to Mentor (When You're Still Learning)
You got promoted, someone junior got assigned to you, and your imposter syndrome got a plus-one. How to be useful to a mentee while you're still figuring it out yourself.
— Aditya Dalal, Tempus AI
Context Engineering for Healthcare AI Agents
A hands-on lab on what actually goes in the context window. What to feed an agent, what to hold back, and why "just add RAG" falls apart on real clinical data.
— Tony Farias, Databricks
From Server Farms to Waiting Rooms: Re-Applying Queuing Theory to Clinical Ops
The same math that keeps your servers from melting explains why the 3pm clinic is a disaster. Load balancing, but for humans.
— Jack Light, Planbase
How to Actually Listen: Turning "Requirements" into "Desirements"
People rarely ask for what they actually need. Good questions, fast prototypes, and building the right thing instead of just a thing.
— George Rhinehart, MyMOC

Frequently Asked Questions
For other questions, please contact events@outofpocket.health
How many people are going to be attending?
We're capping attendance at ~80 people. This is intentionally intimate and curated so you actually get to know the other attendees.
What is the price of the micro-conference? What if I cannot afford this price?
If accepted, the ticket cost is $950. Many past attendees have been able to get this covered by their employer through learning and development budgets. If cost is a concern, you should still apply and we might be able to figure something out.
What if I can’t make it last minute? Can I get a refund or transfer my ticket?
Tickets are non-transferable. Your acceptance is only for you. Attendees are eligible for a full refund until 30 days prior to the event start. After August 18, 2026, no refunds will be issued.
Will you be organizing accommodations?
On the application we've asked you to express interest in a hotel room block to help us gauge demand. More information will be shared after the application process is complete.
Will there be food?
Yes! The pre-event reception will have heavy apps, and the main event day will have catered breakfast, lunch, and snacks. The post-event happy hour will also have food. If accepted, we'll collect your dietary needs and restrictions to make sure you're accommodated.
Is the venue ADA accessible?
Yes, the venue is ADA accessible. If you have specific accessibility needs, please reach out to events@outofpocket.health so we can make sure you're accommodated
How are attendees selected?
The application is meant to filter people who take effort to apply, have interesting viewpoints, and bring a diversity of perspectives into the room. The rest is the special sauce :).
Who is the ideal attendee?
Ship it is for anyone mid-to-senior level engineering working in healthcare. Doesn’t matter what part of healthcare, what languages you know, etc. We care about people who are building, have some experience, and want to be in an environment where they’ll learn from others.
