IAIMS Program and Poster Session

Call for Posters -- Submission Deadline June 15, 2007

Purpose and Scope
The IAIMS Consortium is sponsoring a day of programming at the AMIA annual meeting in Chicago on Tuesday, November 13, 2007. Included in your regular meeting registration is access to the 90 minute IAIMS-sponsored scientific panel session and evening poster session. A special ticketed dinner will take place on-site following the poster session.

Panel Session - Data Exchange in the Acute Care Setting
The multi-institutional panel will draw from the collective experience of three different data exchange projects that range from plan to post-implementation. Data exchange projects have focused on collecting and redistributing clinical data primarily through local collaboration. Common challenges have included securing stakeholder buy-in, establishing stable financial models, and instituting policies that protect patient data while providing appropriate access.

Panelists from Regenstrief's INPC network, a new consortium in the greater New York area, and a telemedicine application in the Los Angeles area will discuss strategies for tackling the organizational and financial aspects of data exchange projects and explore the potential of expanding local networks to improve a specific patient outcome measure.

Poster Session
The poster session will provide a forum for illustrating and discussing participants' latest information technology, knowledge management, and health informatics or bioinformatics projects. This session will be held in one section of the main AMIA evening poster session on Tuesday, November 13 from 5-7 pm.

Dinner Event
Dinner will follow the evening poster session and give attendees the opportunity to further discuss projects and ideas. Featured speaker, Donald Levick of Lehigh Valley Hospital Network, will give a dynamic presentation on his organization's remote ICU monitoring system. Dinner is a ticketed event at $55 per person and tickets may be purchased through the AMIA registration form.
