G7 Planning Meeting

An exclusive event by invitation only for prospective sponsors of the G7 Roundtable Series

September 8, 2010 | Nashville, TN

Plan your future! As the nation builds out a digital platform for our healthcare financial network what do we want it to look like and/or support when its done? What functions are on the critical path list? Cash management within the new Accountable Care Organization? Convergence of mHealth/mBanking? Health Information Exchanges tethered to online banking? Real-time adjudication?

As multiple groups engage this specific area - federal government via the Accountable Care Act, SWIFT, NACHA, financial systems firms - we have a historic opportunity to develop strategic thinking for creating a high value network. Who is envisioning the future state of our healthcare financial network?

Join colleagues and subject matter experts to plan a 3 year quest to design critical path features of the healthcare financial network of the future! This is a unique and dynamic time for creating a high value network. The G7, created by the unification of HIMSS and MBProject, creates the industry leading platform to move this new digital platform forward!

Sponsorship

As discussed with many of you, HIMSS MBProject is seeking up to 20 sponsors that will be uniquely identified with the G7 mission. You are being invited to plan our thought leadership platform and in the process, we believe you will catch our vision and become a sponsor. We realize that this is not feasible for all of our invited guests and participants. You will hear more about this unique and highly visible sponsorship opportunity at our G7 Planning Meeting.
