I can’t believe that HIMSS 2013 is finally here. Well, it’s almost here. I fly out on Saturday, and I’m seeing the tweets come in from the various vendors who are arriving in New Orleans to setup their booths. For those that can’t attend, we’ll do our best to give you a peek into the event. For those that can attend, I always love to meet those who read EMR and HIPAA in person. The following is a list of events that I’m hosting, participating in or otherwise engaged. All of these events and more are also listed in the Influential Networks HIMSS 2013 Event Guide.
I look forward to seeing many of you at these great events and in the hallways of HIMSS. It’s always great to see old friends and make new ones.
