Welcome to the HIMSS Membership Drive site. Your resource for recruiting new HIMSS members and earning great prizes!

There’s never been a more opportune time to share the advantages of HIMSS membership. From now until December 31st, HIMSS will award prizes for recruiting new members! We’re giving away cold, hard HIMSS bucks that can be applied toward books, publications, webinar fees and conference registration fees.* And that’s not all. The top recruiter will receive free registration to the 2008 HIMSS Annual Conference and Exhibition.

Take Advantage of Your Industry Network.

HIMSS members include executives CEOs, CIOs, COOs and other senior executives, IT technical staff, physicians, nurses, consultants, attorneys, financial advisors, technology vendors, academicians, management engineers, students—in fact, professionals across the entire spectrum of the healthcare IT industry.

So, make a list, set a goal and help HIMSS build an even stronger base to advocate for healthcare IT.
