Event Agenda

Pacific Region Chapter Sessions

Oregon: Welcome, What's New, Network

In this session, we'll spend the first 20 minutes introducing our Board of Directors and sharing highlights from our strategic plan. You'll also hear from our Advisory Council Chair, who will recognize the efforts of our incredible healthcare IT community over the past 18+ months.

After that, we'll shift into breakout rooms, where there will be a mix of "Two Truths and a Lie" plus topics for discussion/sharing/networking. Each break out room will be moderated by a member of the Board.

In addition, we'd love to hear your thoughts on future programming for the year. We're gathering this feedback via an interactive poll during the session.
