RHIO Update
The HIMSS Chapter RHIO Liaison Roundtable provides a vital communication link between HIMSS chapters and their local RHIO/HIE and/or state level HIE activities with HIMSS national activities. Sharing and communication is focused around local activities and efforts as well as national activities including the HIMSS HIE Steering Committee, HIMSS State Advocacy efforts and HIMSS Advocacy CALR program.

In addition, the monthly Roundtable conference calls are open to all HIMSS members to participate as guests who may have an interest in RHIOs and HIEs.
