The Northern and Southern California Chapters of HIMSS sponsored the 3rd Annual California State Advocacy Day. The event was held on Thursday, April 29th, 2010 at the historic Citizen Hotel located at 926 J Street, Sacramento, CA 95814.
It was an exciting event. We had the opportunity to hear nationally recognized speakers, meet with our legislator(s), have access to sponsoring vendors, have the opportunity to network with peers and gain insight to the impact of 'Meaningful Use' on California and our district.

HIMSS 2010 — A Resounding Success for the California Chapters
The Northern and Southern California HIMSS Chapters held a networking event on the Exhibit Hall Floor this year, their third co-Chapter networking event held at the annual conference. In a departure from previous events, the event was sponsored by CSC at their booth on the Exhibit floor, making it easy for California Chapter members to attend and network.
The response was tremendous and registration had to be closed after only 5 days when attendance reached 115. The event was hosted in and around the CSC booth with sponsorship by Allscripts. Steve Edison, partner with CSC said, “We had more than 150 attend, they were everywhere.”
Cindy Peterson, CIO Henry Mayo noted “The event gave me an opportunity to network with other CIO’s that I have not seen in a while. Given that it was in the Exhibit Hall, it made it much easier to attend.”
Clark Kegley, Senior Director, Service Delivery, Scripps Health Information Services, was very enthusiastic, “I really enjoyed the mix of attendees. We had vendors, providers, academia and payers at the event. We had a couple of folks who were new to the HIMSS chapter and I really think we convinced those folks to continue their involvement with the local HIMSS chapter.” Dean Torres, VP Membership for So CA said, “This member recruitment and development was an unintended output of this networking event.”
Jeff Hawley, Senior Manager with Accenture noted “this venue has provided the opportunity to meet California chapter members and non-members and has provided an unprecedented networking opportunity — the HIMSS version of speed dating that we don’t seem to have with the luncheon venue”.
Martha Dameron, President No CA, and Carl Hill, President So CA were very pleased with the event and want to give a big thank you to Allscripts and CSC for their support and participation.

2nd Annual HIMSS California Chapters Advocacy Day
The 2nd Annual HIMSS California Chapters Advocacy Day took place in Sacramento on May 12th, 2009. The event was held at the Hyatt Regency across from the State Capitol. The room was filled with over 90 Southern & Northern California HIMSS members which almost doubles the attendance from the previous year.
Keynote speakers were Herb Shultz, Senior Advisor to the Governor, and Jonah Fhrolich, Deputy Secretary of Health Information Technology, California Health & Human Services. This dynamic duo presented an incredible amount of information regarding the Stimulus bill and engaged the crowd on a 45 minute question and answer session that culminated with a quick break to visit our event sponsors. Both speakers solicited input from the crowd in an unprecedented manner, including request for participation on a stakeholders call.
Following the break we had our own Dave Roberts presenting information on HIMSS Legislative Principles now known as the HIMSS Government Initiatives. Last but not least our chapter advocacy advisor Angela Taylor, held a stellar training session for the group. At the end of the education session all members were ready to meet our legislative representatives and carry the message to the Capitol.
The day continued with an exquisite Southern lunch and a walk to the State Capitol where HIMSS members met with 64 legislators. 'Leave behind' HIMSS folders were also distributed to a total of 120 offices. At the end of the day all members enjoyed the opportunity to debrief and network with other members. This was a very exciting time for all of us since this proved to be one of the most successful advocacy days for both chapters.

Summary: Whether providing products, services or solutions, vendors are a necessity for the operation of a modern IT unit. Like any valuable resource, vendors bring an array of capabilities. However, they can also contribute to a range of complications.

As IT leaders, we must become equally adept at vendor management.

In 2005 he began participating in medical informatics decision making for an enterprise of 43 hospitals across Arizona , Nevada and California .
