Annual Regional Conference hosted by the HIMSS Chapters of Texas

RIDING THE WAVES OF CHANGE    How do we keep up and make sense of the HIT alphabet soup (ARRA, EHR MU, HITECH, HIE, ICD-10, NHIN, HIPAA 5010, etc.) and plan a roadmap to get us to "meaningful use"?   Other questions to consider:   How do we drive clinician adoption and improve clinical outcomes through information technology?   Where is the logical place for the HIE, and how do you build a sustainable model?   How will we meet the requirements for quality reporting and pay for performance changes?    Join us as we explore and navigate our way through the changing landscape - attempting to make it all meaningful!
