Diamond Management & Technology Consultants Partners to Speak on Issues Affecting Healthcare Industry.

Three Key Upcoming Events Set to Highlight Diamond's Expertise

CHICAGO -- Partners from Diamond Management & Technology Consultants, Inc. (NASDAQ: DTPI) will speak at three upcoming events about the opportunities facing the healthcare industry--ranging from the impact of retiring Baby Boomers' to predictive modeling strategies for health plans.

Diamond has established a reputation for leadership in helping healthcare payers, providers, and life sciences companies, and financial service companies, compete in a market shifting towards consumer-directed healthcare. That work typically involves harnessing information and technology to achieve clients' strategic, economic, and operational goals. In addition to working with leading companies in those sectors, the management and technology consulting firm has published a variety of reports on issues ranging from healthcare informatics to opportunities for serving the health and wealth needs of retiring Baby Boomers.

Anand S. Rao, a Partner in Diamond's Insurance practice, will speak on Sept. 23 at The Second National Predictive Modeling Summit. The summit, which will be held at the Renaissance Washington DC Hotel on Sept. 22 and 23, is a leading forum on the subject of predictive modeling clinical and actuarial applications for health plans and related settings. Rao's presentation will be entitled, "Behavioral Economics and Belief-Desire-Intention Models: Their Implications for an Aging Population's Wealth and Health Decisions."

Tom Weakland, Managing Partner of Diamond's Healthcare practice, and Aamer Baig, Managing Partner of Diamond's Financial Services practice, will hold a workshop at the Health-Wealth Summit on Sept 24. The workshop, "Retirement Readiness: Helping Baby Boomers Reduce the Risks," will highlight Diamond's recent retirement research findings, which are detailed in the firm's "Retirement Study 2008." The Health-Wealth Summit runs from Sept. 24 - 26 at The Palms South Beach in Miami Beach, FL.

On Oct. 20, Diamond Vice Chairman and Partner John Sviokla will present innovative research and answer questions at The Third National Consumer Healthcare Conference, to be held at the Marriott Wardman Park in Washington, DC. Sviokla will introduce research on how Baby Boomers think about saving and paying for their healthcare, and how Boomers challenge leaders to apply the principles of behavioral economics popularized by Diamond Fellow and MIT Professor Dan Ariely.
