It’s National Health IT Week

From HIMSS:

It’s National Health IT Week—September 12-16, 2011! Healthcare organizations around the country are recognizing the value of health IT, and we hope you are too.

Many are kicking off National Health IT Week in Washington today with the Institute for e-Health Policy’s all-day Capitol Hill Health IT Showcase and panel discussion — this year including more than 30 displays and hundreds of people in the beautiful and historic Kennedy Caucus Room of the Russell Senate Office Building. Others will be joining HIMSS at the 10th Annual Policy Summit on Sept. 14-15 to share the latest telehealth, disease monitoring and health IT advances with Members of Congress.
