Daylong AHIC meeting to be Webcast

Here’s some good news and bad news:

HHS confirms that the first meeting of the American Health Information Community (AHIC) will be Webcast live Friday at http://www.videocast.nih.gov/. But be forewarned that this might be for hardcore C-SPAN junkie types only, as the meeting runs from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. EDT.

If you happen to be in the Washington area and want to see all the action in person, the meeting is open to the public in Room 705A of the Hubert Humprhey Building, 200 Independence Ave., S.W.

Either way, you might want to make an extra pot of coffee Friday morning.
