HIMSS, AAMI and ACCE have joined forces to advance the timely and critical issues facing the clinical engineering/IT community.
We represent thousands of biomedical equipment technicians, clinical engineers, IT professionals, clinicians, and other medical technology professionals around the world.
Each of our organizations has established programs, publications, and organizational structures for its membership.
By pooling our resources through this collaboration, we are seeking to foster a united voice for IT and clinical engineering concerns; and develop important resources, best practices, and networking opportunities to advance the interests of CE-IT issues in healthcare.
We have created a brief, nine-question online survey. If can respond to these questions by close of business day on Friday, May 9, we would appreciate it. Take the survey now.
Your responses are essential in helping to determine the specific projects that will be undertaken by this collaboration in the coming months. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact any of us at the e-mails below:
