If Data Could Talk, What Would It Say?

As health information professionals know, health data is much more than it appears. It tells the story of patients and caregivers, of challenges and triumphs.

Join us at the Baltimore Convention Center this October to connect with your community of health information professionals, engage in conversations about the future of healthcare, and learn about trending topics that will have everyone talking.

AHIMA23 is more than an event, it’s where health information comes to life.

Registration will open soon!
