The Pennsylvania Healthcare IT Day (PA HIT Day) is a great opportunity for Pennsylvania HIMSS members to meet the legislators who help advocate, create, and advance policies around Healthcare IT (HIT) within the Commonwealth.

There will be a full Healthcare IT Advocacy Day on Tuesday, April 30, 2019. Representatives from DVHIMSS, Western PA HIMSS and Central PA HIMSS will be visiting State Representatives to discuss and advocate for legislation that support the progress of the Healthcare IT (HIT) initiatives in Pennsylvania.

Legislative and executive branch leaders will discuss legislative and other government progress toward advancing HIT in the Commonwealth via a webinar later that day. The hour-long webinar will commence at approximately 12:00 noon EST and will feature remarks from legislative leaders as well as the Advocacy Committee chairs of the PA HIMSS chapters.

Topics for this year’s PA HIT Day include: telehealth, interoperable health records for students, and HIT workforce initiatives.

Webinar link will be sent to all registrants prior to the commencement of the webinar.
