Speakers
The Conference Agenda Planning Committee has already begun the process of identifying speakers for the 2008 conference. We are pleased to announce that we have extended an invitation to Tennessee Governor Phil Bredesen to be the keynote speaker. In 2006, Governor Bredesen was chosen to lead the NGA’s State Alliance for E-Health along with Vermont Governor Jim Douglas. Tennessee is recognized nationally for e-Health initiatives receiving close to $7 million dollars in government funding for its efforts.
To end our conference on a musical note, our closing keynote will be Robin Crow, owner and founder of Dark Horse Recording. Clients of Dark Horse include Neil Diamond, Faith Hill, Jewel and Alison Krauss. Robin is also an exceptional guitarist and his unique musical and motivational performance will be a perfect ending to MMIS 2008.
The theme of the 2008 MMIS Conference, “Harmony in Music City” emphasizes the need for harmony and partnership as we tackle the technological challenges of the MMIS.
The conference agenda will feature four tracks: CMS/MITA; HIT/HIE/eHealth; New Technologies; and Procurement and Operations. Additionally, the vendor community will have opportunities to present the latest technologies and products during daily Vendor Tracks.
