Our Formation

In May of 2022 the Western PA and Central PA HIMSS chapters entered into an agreement to pilot combining the two chapters with the goals of;

  • Providing support from a Board and Committee perspective to assist with filling any individual chapter gaps to ensure a scalable model
  • Identifying and implementing best practices relative to finances, sponsorship, meetings, student support and leadershipโ€‹
  • Demonstrating greater value to our members and sponsors

The Keystone HIMSS Advocacy Committee aims to advocate for and advance public policy issues relevant to health information technology (HIT) at the local and regional levels. We strive to provide a collaborative environment for stakeholders across Pennsylvania, addressing various topics. Members work with local and state representatives and the PA Medical Society to develop robust legislation to support using health information technology (HIT) across the region.
