HDCOE WEBINAR
Strategic Planning for HIEs: Building a Roadmap That Lasts
Practical strategies for sustainable HIE and HDU planning.
November 18th from 12:00 – 1:15 PM CT
WHY ATTEND
Strategic plans should guide decisions, not collect dust.
Health Information Exchanges and Data Utilities face growing pressure to balance evolving policy, funding uncertainty, organizational priorities, participant and payer priorities, and technology modernization. A strategic plan can help navigate those challenges, but only if it remains relevant after it’s written.
Join Briljent consultants as they share lessons from years of helping HIEs and state agencies develop strategies that support sustainable growth and long-term execution.
Whether you’re refreshing an existing strategic plan, preparing for organizational change, or beginning a new planning effort, you’ll leave with practical ideas you can apply within your own organization.
