What a great fall conference in downtown Winston-Salem! This conference “Now and Next in Healthcare Delivery” put NC HIMSS Chapter back into an annual rotation for fall of each year and came on the heels of our 2022 spring conference, the first following the COVID-19 delays. As such, attendance was lighter than usual, however the content, networking, and sponsorships were strong! We are very excited to begin planning for the 2023 fall conference and hope you can join us.
Highlights of the NC HIMSS Fall Conference include Edward Marx, CEO of Divurgent and former CIO of Cleveland Clinic sharing trends in IT, a CIO Panel, an advocacy discussion, and a networking reception at Roar. Some initial information and attendee feedback about this conference held at the Marriott & Convention Center on October 18th and 19th:
