\nWe still need some moderators, scribes and patients for the eight table topics.
\nRegistration<\/strong> Our speakers will have free registration for the SPM conference and Connected Health has given us a few free registrations as well. One person will be designated to register all of our speakers.
\nMarketing<\/strong>, driving attendance is critical and marketing is working hard to reach out to our members and ask them to reach out to all of their contacts. We are asking for our board members to commit to soliciting 10 attendees each. Our speakers are also sending out information on the conference to their contacts.
\nSponsorships<\/strong>. Confirmed sponsors as follows:
\nACR $3000
\nHealthSparq $2500
\nInvolution $1000
\nNorthwestern $1000
\nAccenture: will commit $5000 for a webinar series (possibly as a co-sponsor)
\nFollow up<\/strong> The Executive Committee agreed that we should do an email survey of all attendees following the conference. It should be short, approximately three questions. It will be invaluable in helping us plan for next year.
\nTravel scholarships<\/strong>. We have an existing fund. and additional contributions from our sponsors. We agreed that we want to spend no more than 50% each year. Alexander Albin is drafting an interim policy for this conference, and she will flush it out for future conferences.<\/p>\n
