The agenda for the workshop was divided into three sections:

1. Changing Needs and Trends in Health Care,
2. Creating a Vision for the Future, and
3. Creating an Environment to Support Needed Changes.

The workshop covered a diverse set of issues in trying to answer the question of how AHCs can and should respond to the needs and demands of a changing population and health care environment. No findings or conclusions were determined at the workshop, nor should any be drawn from these proceedings. The workshop was intended solely as an information-gathering activity by the committee.

The Committee's final report, Academic Health Centers: Leading Change in the 21st Century, was released on July 17, 2003.
