HIMSS

Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society Conference & Exhibition
March 3-7, 2013
New Orleans, LA

Jointly sponsored by PIM (Postgraduate Institute for Medicine) and HIMSS, the Annual HIMSS Conference and Exhibition provides world-class health IT and management systems education.

Each year, HIMSS’s Annual Conference offers over 200 general education sessions that are selected from a peer-reviewed process. To ensure that our program’s content is timely, relevant, and optimally targeting our attendees’ needs, the ACEC selects from the submissions received during the “Call for Proposals” and may supplement programming by inviting speakers to fill any gaps identified.

In response to the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 which includes billions of dollars in Medicare and Medicaid incentive payments to providers and hospitals who demonstrate “Meaningful Use” of certified health IT products as defined through the publication of proposed rules in March 2010, HIMSS’ welcomes and will give preference to abstracts that demonstrate the adoption of healthcare information technology in support of the roadmap towards meaningful use. For HIMSS12, the focus continues on the “demonstration” of what has been accomplished.
