HIMSS eHealth SIG to present on PHRs
February 11, 2009
The Webex will occur on Wednesday, February 18, 2009 at 3pm EST. They made a good choice of presenters:
- Wes Rishel, VP and Distinguished Analyst, Gartner, Inc.
- Matt Guldin, Product Manager, HealthNet, former Industry Analyst with Frost & Sullivan
I’ve known Matt for some time now – he brings a broad perspective on this and, of course, Gartner always has its hands on the pulse of things.
If you are interested in attending, contact Ben Dillion at ben.dillon@geonetric.com.
The HIMSS eHealth Special Interest Group will also meet in person at the Annual HIMSS conference in Chicago. The meeting will be Monday, April 6, 2009 from 1:00 – 2:30pm at the Hyatt Conference Center in room 12AB. The topic is “Health 2.0.” Watch this blog for more info. I will be there.
