We provide thoughtful perspectives to legislators and staff shaping our healthcare system by providing expertise on health information technology, telehealth, health information exchange, and other related topics.

We’ve enjoyed several opportunities to meet and execute events for our Advocacy purposes. Visit our Events & Education Calendar page for upcoming Advocacy activities.
