The two Ohio Chapters of the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) in Ohio have joined forces to bring the issue of healthcare information technology (Health IT) to the forefront of the political discussion. The Northern Ohio HIMSS Chapter (NOHIMSS) and Central & Southern Ohio HIMSS Chapter (CSOHIMSS) co-sponsored the Ohio Healthcare Information Technology Day at the Statehouse in Columbus to directly engage state officials and address Health IT for the benefit all Ohioans. If you have ever had an interest in actively participating in HIMSS, participating in local politics, or helping to shape the future of Ohio's Health IT vision, now is your chance! You can join your fellow Ohioans and Ohio HIMSS Chapter members to take our issues to the Ohio State Government.
