Become a member of the HIE Community
The HIE Community serves as the central convening point for HIE professionals to share ideas, make connections, learn best practices and leverage opportunities in a collaborative virtual community. Each quarter we host a 90 minute HIE Community Roundtable open to
all HIMSS members that choose to be a part of the HIMSS Community.
HIMSS members can join the community by updating their HIMSS Participations or by sending an e-mail to interop@himss.org requesting to join.
