That’s a wrap on #HIMSS23, a week filled of reconnecting with old friends and learning about what the future of #digitalhealth and #innovation in healthcare holds! Also got to meet Damar Hamlin and his doctor, who’s story captured the attention of our country!
The MATCH IT Act of 2025 (H.R. 2002) has been reintroduced! A huge thank you to our congressional champions, @MikeKellyPA and @RepBillFoster, for your continued leadership supporting patient matching and identification!
@HIMSS @PatientidN
This bill would improve patient safety, protect privacy, and enhance care coordination by tackling a critical issue impacting our healthcare ecosystem - patient misidentification. #Interoperability #PatientIDnow

Houston, we have a new spacesuit.
At the #IAC2024 in Milan, @Axiom_Space unveiled the flight design of its lunar spacesuit that @NASA_Astronauts will wear during the #Artemis III mission when they set foot on the Moon for the first time in over 50 years.

When @MichiganHHS’s electronic laboratory reporting (ELR) system became overwhelmed with COVID-19 test results, they used CDC’s Data Modernization Initiative (DMI) funding on software to unburden the system.

We desperately need more stories like this about companies that aren't raising from VCs, plus how they did it.
VC is just one way to raise money and it isn't suited to every kind of health care company.
Kudos @RebeccaTorrenc5

🚨Yesterday the House passed the Preventing Maternal Deaths Reauthorization Act of 2023 (H.R. 3838), championed by @michaelcburgess and @RepDianaDeGette, with overwhelming bipartisan support!
@HIMSS @matchcoalition
This important bill will address the maternal mortality crisis in this country by strengthening support for state-based MMRCs to tackle preventable maternal deaths and disparities in maternal health, and improve outcomes for all mothers.
