HIMSS Offers the Latest in Health IT for 2014

By Melinda Taschetta-Millane, editorial director

With the theme of “Innovation. Impact. Outcomes. Onward,” HIMSS14, the annual conference and exhibition of the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society, will hold its annual event February 23-27, 2014, at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando.

The educational lineup will feature top leaders sharing their insights and lessons learned on the most critical topics today, including keynote speaker Hillary Rodham Clinton. With hundreds of educational sessions to choose from, healthcare professionals at all levels can customize their own agenda to meet their individual needs. New this year is a revised, attendee-friendlier schedule with more time between sessions and more time to visit exhibits; a new “unconference,” featuring a Tuesday track in which attendees decide the content; and symposia sessions powered by content recommended by attendees through a special call for proposals.

In addition, experience thousands of products and services on the exhibit floor. A reimagined Interoperability Showcase offers the most interactive, attendee-engaging demonstration to date, and a new and unique exhibit area highlighting start-up companies. A few of the technologies that will be featured at HIMSS13 are highlighted below.
