in light of the difficult economic conditions in which many healthcare professionals are operating, we’re delighted to announce that HC2012, both conference and exhibition will be free to delegates.
“Our decision reflects the importance that health informatics plays in our healthcare system today and the demand for our conference and exhibition which has become the definitive event for the healthcare IT and information industry."
The programme for the two day conference will be split across a number of streams including a focus on policy changes and how they impact health informatics. The conference will feature several high profile speakers including: Mike Farrar, Chief Executive of the NHS Confederation, Jim Easton, NHS National Director for Improvement
and Efficiency, Quality, Innovation, Productivity and Prevention (QIPP), and Dr Charles Gutteridge, National Director for Informatics. The event will be chaired by broadcaster Nick Ross a world-class moderator with a longstanding interest in healthcare and information systems.
Matthew concluded: “I’m delighted that this year yet again we have a very full and strong programme. There is literally something for everyone involved in health informatics, whether it’s learning from our international guest speakers - this year we’ve got speakers from Australia, China, Romania, Georgia, France and Norway - or enjoying the practical skills workshops and best practice theatre. HC2012 is the perfect platform for the profession to demonstrate and showcase best practice and innovation, investment and value.”
