Legislative Affairs

The Legislative Affairs Committee is comprised of health information management professionals from a variety of health care settings and legal professionals who specialize in health care.  The Committee provides advocacy, education and information to the membership.

The Legislative Affairs Committee advocates on behalf of the profession. The committee reaches out to elected representatives during annual Beacon Hill Day visits, and by organizing calls, letters and e-mail to elected representatives to advocate on issues of importance to the health information management community.

The Committee provides educational opportunities to the membership and delivers timely and informative updates to the membership through e-Alerts, eChannel articles, and periodic updates of our Medico-Legal Guide.
