MHIMA Members,
I am honored to
have the opportunity to serve as the President
of MHIMA for 2007-2008. Our CSA strives to
promote the goals of AHIMA and meet the specific
needs of our state membership through education,
communication and advocacy. As Health
Information Management professionals, we strive
to be a leader in all areas of Health
Information Management.
It is an
exciting time in the healthcare industry.
Health Information Management professionals are
playing a key role as we transition to an
electronic record. We all can and should play a
role in this endeavor. I challenge everyone to
keep open to opportunities where you might be
able to help drive change in your institution,
city, or even in the state.
The Board is
busy working on strategic initiatives that will
encourage better communication, mentoring of
students and members, education in a variety of
modalities and advocacy for the changes
occurring. We cannot do this alone. We need
your help. Below is a list of our committees.
Please consider where you might like to help and
then volunteer.
Please feel free
to contact me with your questions, thoughts or
concerns. I can be reached at
president@mohima.org or call me at
314-977-8704. I look forward to hearing from
you.
Sincerely,
Julie Wolter,
MA, RHIA
President, MHIMA
