http://citih.osumc.edu OSU Medical Center's Center for IT Innovations in Healthcare invite you to join us for our third annual healthcare IT summit hosted by OSU Medical Center and being held at the Hilton Easton in Columbus, OH on Monday, November 9, 2009. Leveraging Federal Stimulus Funding for Healthcare IT Innovations It’s one thing to request stimulus funding. It’s another thing to know how to use it. It’s with this challenge in mind that The Ohio State University Medical Center’s Center for IT Innovations in Healthcare (CITIH) presents its third annual summit: Leveraging Federal Stimulus Funding for Healthcare IT Innovations. The current state of the economy has provided an exceptional opportunity for the healthcare industry to re-evaluate how to best utilize resources while being fiscally responsible. Stimulus funding opens the floodgates for the exploration of unique, collaborative opportunities between the academic and operational functions of health care organizations. How can the two work together to forge a path of innovation and progress? To address this question, CITIH will bring together distinguished and solution-generating leadership, those involved in the evolution of health care technology, to gather, discuss and document ideas and solutions for this emerging relationship within academic medical centers. Who Should Attend? Academic Medical/Health Center/Hospital CIO, CTO, Senior IT/Systems administrators Chief Quality Officer, Safety and Quality Officer Department Chairs/Divisional Chiefs Physician and Specialty Group Practice Managers Healthcare IT developers, providers and industry consultants Academic health center senior administrators, researchers, educators and students Scientists Clinical investigators Translational scientists Clinical care providers Public health investigators
