For the 122nd episode of the Healthcare IT Podcast, we are taking a look at the recent changes from the HIMSS Conference and other hot news topics. To kick the episode off we share our take on the HIMSS conference being sold to Informa. Then we talk about our predictions for HIMSS24 and how this transfer in ownership will change the conference and what will stay the same. Next, we take a look at some of the comments made by the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) on a recent Healthcare Unfiltered podcast about whether doctors should have hobbies and the effectiveness of ongoing certifications by associations. And to wrap everything up, we discuss the lack of M&As and investments happening in Health IT.

Here’s a preview of the topics and questions we discuss in this episode:

So what’s your take on the news that HIMSS has sold their conference to Informa – a company that specializes in running large industry conferences?
What is your prediction for HIMSS24? What changes will we see or won’t see?
On a recent Healthcare Unfiltered podcast, they had the ABIM there with several provocative comments about whether doctors should or shouldn’t have hobbies and whether ongoing certifications by associations are effective.
