HIMSS 2011 in February
I will be attending the 2011 HIMSS national conference at the Orlando Conference Center in Florida in February.
There are approximately 20,000 people who attend this conference.
I am particularly looking forward to attending their sessions regarding HIPAA compliance issues and CCHIT and electronic health issues.
CCHIT is the Certification Commission for Health Information Technology. These are federal requirements for certification.
Therap is working towards 2011 certification. We have announced that a conference for December 2011 in Florida which will cover Therap and Meaningful Use and CCHIT issues.
Attending Virtual Himss Conference
I have spent some time at the virtual Himss conference. It was interesting trying to see how to attend a conference virtually. I was able to have some good conversations and also get some useful information.
