Welcome to the HIMSS Washington State Chapter, a local chapter of the Health Information and Management Systems Society, focused on providing leadership in healthcare for the management of systems, technology and information.
The Chapter promotes an organized forum for continuing education and exchange of ideas amongst its members to improve healthcare information and management systems that support patient care and wellness.
We have significantly upgraded and expanded the content of our chapter website. Our objective is for the website to function as our primary method of communication between and amongst YOU, the members that we serve.
HIMSS Washington is an Affiliated Chapter of the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society.
