OHT Board Meeting, Technical Exchange and Jump Start Meeting
Open Health Tools will be holding its Technical Exchange and Board Meeting in Las Vegas, Nevada, following the HIMSS 2012 conference. The meetings will take place February 23-24, 2012 (Thursday and Friday) at the Luxor in Las Vegas, NV, USA. Details of the meetings below.
In additon Open Health Tools will have a booth at the HIMSS2012 Interoperability Showcase in Las Vegas courtesy of Georgia Tech. The HIMSS2012 Showcase will be open from Tuesday, February 21 through Thursday, February 23, 2012 – overlapping with OHT's Technical Exchange meeting on February 23 and ending before the Board meeting on Friday, February 24.
OHT’s primary goal for having a HIMSS booth is to increase awareness of those OHT projects that foster interoperability and demonstrate innovation toward flexible, future-state health IT solutions. We can, simultaneously, increase interest and membership in OHT by demonstrating some of our charter projects.
OHT and Georgia Tech are pursuing a public-private initiative to accelerate health IT innovation and generate the robust, competitive, responsive marketplace necessary to support our future learning health system. A trusted, neutral network of organizations and companies will enable virtual, collaborative, “innovation sandboxes” to be created quickly and inexpensively by providing rapid access to a wide range of commercial and open source health IT products and tools.
