In partnership with Association of Medical Directors of Information Systems (AMDIS)

Clinical Informatics continues to advance through pioneering innovations at the intersection of people, technology, process, and data. In recent years the CMIO has been joined by Chief Health Information Officers, Chief Nursing Informatics Officers, Chief Data Officers, Chief People Analytics Officers, and more. As the health and healthcare industry tackles emerging business models, social determinants of health, and more informed consumers, technologies such as wearable devices, remote patient monitoring, virtual care and other digital health apps and platforms are becoming more prevalent in delivering healthcare services, and promoting better health and wellbeing.

Chief Digital Officers and Chief Innovation Officers are becoming important members of the leadership team. Whether you aspire to be a Clinical Informatics/digital health leader, are new to your position or are seeking to move to the next level, this symposium will help you connect with peers, further define your responsibilities, develop practical skills to help you progress in your career, and partner with others for success.
